About This Book

A young man inhabits his parents' empty apartment after his mother's death and his father's absence, moving through early-morning streets and lingering over domestic objects that evoke family memory. He prepares to leave the old home for a small rented flat, performs quiet household rituals, and recalls clashes with parental expectations and his habit of late-night outings. Close, detailed scenes—including the drafting of a blunt refusal to a woman—reveal social tensions, awkward intimacy, and decisions about reputation. The narrative blends melancholy atmosphere with restrained reflection on loss, solitude, personal freedom, and the practical costs of stepping into independent adulthood.
