There is a symphony still playing beneath the noise of ordinary life, and most of us have simply lost the notes to name what we hear. This is a book about the quiet erosion of language and what disappears with it — the felt sense of self, the precision of inner knowing, the words that once made one human interior legible to another. It does not mourn the loss so much as locate it, and in the locating, begins the long work of return.
