If you were stuck in a small space after a disaster, alone, but have everything you need to survive... Could you handle it? Could your mind handle it?Remains is a character-versus-self survival story that will immerse you in the experiences and thoughts of an average American man, Sam, when he awakens, stuck in his pantry, following a catastrophic event. Sam finds that he has access to all of the basic necessities for survival, physically, but cannot escape, and soon faces unexpected psychological, emotional, and spiritual challenges, plus crippling physical issues.The mood of the story shifts from clever and humorous to ironic and disturbing throughout our subject’s journey seeking escape and relief. Sam’s greatest obstacles are loneliness, physical, and mental health, all manifesting from varying and often unexpected sources. Intelligent, thoughtful, and compassionate, Sam finds that his predicament is the type that no one could prepare for. His mind becomes his only companion and a source of great conflict. While very relatable, the story delivers open, but often uncomfortable access to a private and perpetually shrinking world and mind. Although dependent upon an apocalyptic pretense, the story, itself, is more concerned with character than cause.The story is based on realistic conjecture and presented with stark transparency. As a partner and parent, Sam wrestles with problems that you may relate to and sympathize with, but the development provides twists, surprises, and a full-range of emotions along the way.Remains is intended for adult audiences and some scenes are not intended for sensitive readers (language, disturbing violence, sexual content, and more!). Fun fact: The first draft of Remains was mostly composed on an iPhone.
