About This Book

A sequence of evocative poems portrays the lives of empty rooms and household objects as embodiments of memory, longing and decay. The narrator observes mirrors, curtains, pianos, flowers and chandeliers, tracing how silence shapes perception, doubles objects, and transforms domestic light into melancholy. Recurring images of reflection, dying blooms, nightfall and fragile glass explore solitude, the persistence of interior dreams, and the boundary between presence and absence. Quiet rhythms and dense sensory detail render the domestic interior as a landscape of reverie where loss and consolation coexist.
