'I am levitating above the curvature of the earth. Weightless,
unencumbered. Flung like a comet out of the atmosphere to drift
eternally along the firmament.' In this bittersweet and hauntingly
surreal tale, a couple finds the distance between them mirrored in a
strange epidemic sweeping the globe. Little by little, each victim
becomes transparent, their heart beating behind a visible rib cage, an
intricate network of nerves left hanging in mid-air. Finally, the
victims disappear entirely, never to be seen again. 'I dreamt we were
at sea, ' she says.
