This book is about the space around us -- the things, thoughts, events (or lack thereof) and the images that float in it. Called metaphysical, the space in question is still the experience of one person, an illusion seen through the eyes of a single person. At the same time, this book is also a yearning for a space that is clean and universal for everyone.
