Beschreibungen
I am Eve. Collector of words. I look them up. I write them down. I knead them into sentences. I am the story.
When her mum rescues a book from a garbage can, Eve's life changes. She reads her way into the stories, into a place in the world, worlds she never knew existed. Eve becomes the story. Everything is possible. But with adulthood comes deception and betrayal; to survive Eve strips life bare. No stories, no people, no connection.
But the stories are determined to win her back.
