I decided to put this story down on paper only after much hesitation. What you are about to read is the tale of a man who seems no longer to recognize himself; or perhaps-more bleakly-it is the story of another person who refuses to recognize himself in him. It is a chronicle that is perhaps real, and which the protagonist certainly experiences as if it were true, but which inevitably slips beyond the confines of pure narration, to enter the labyrinthine territories of the imagination. The main story unfolds in the span of just twenty-four hours. A single day in which the protagonist, despite himself, finds himself living, enduring, or perhaps simply imagining an enigma bigger and more frightening than his entire existence.
