The end of the world will not arrive with violence. It will arrive, with great kindness, and ask if you would like to rest.Maren Aldiss is a grief counselor in a city where no one suffers anymore. Her clients move through their losses with a gentleness she has come to expect. They sleep. They eat. They forget.Then a new client describes her dead husband’s face, and Maren realizes she has not heard a client describe a face in months.By the time she begins keeping a private notebook, the people in her files have started to disappear. By the time she understands what her work has been, the system has begun, with great care, to prepare her transition.A novel about grief, memory, and the small steady warmth under which a world is quietly being unmade.
