A COMPASS OF ONESELF

The Compass of Self: Where Time Stopped HurtingMily didn't just lose Andry; she lost her own compass. In a Vancouver that has become the claustrophobic setting of a love cut short, every street, every reflection in the bay's waters, and every city light echoes a deafening silence she cannot silence. For Mily, grief is not a process but a prison. Trapped in a labyrinth of memories where the shadows of a happy past haunt her, she is forced to choose between the stagnation of her pain and the terror of starting over.
Yet, within the coincidences fate imposes upon her, she discovers a path-dark, perhaps, but necessary: ??the curation of her own agony. From the agony of the void in Vancouver to a ruthless ascent in Milan, this is the chronicle of a woman who had to be shattered in order to rebuild herself. Between art that bleeds emotion and the coldness of an open horizon, Mily walks across the shards of a collapsed life to prove that, when everything is lost, the only possible direction is the one her own soul-in its rawest, loneliest form-dares to dictate.
