A place to wash the heart chapter 1
A place to wash the heart chapter 2 prologue
This project is work-in-process, it has 5 chapters that are connected together but can also be read separately.
”A place to wash the heart is born of a need to connect & communicate feelings that are so hard to express with words, here intimate stories effort, & of all of its failure; history becomes a geography of desire, stories become places, places become stories loss & violence, memory without recollections.
I wish I coul create something of it that would make one feel like walking a tightrope above the abyss, every moment like the end of the word.
I wish I could create of it something devoid everyday human trifles & vanity, something as real as a dream seems to be the first moment of waking up.”
