Hello Now


Teenager Jude enjoys thinking in similes and metaphors, so much so that perhaps Jude’s whole story—being uprooted, meeting an odd man, and meeting an otherworldly boy who sees no difference between space and time—is itself a metaphor for first love. The odd boy, Novo, has equally odd conversations with Jude—I’m unsure whether the conversations are deep or metaphors or both or neither—while he manipulates time, space and memories. —Michael Main
You are the place I return to, in between times. My fulcrum, the point at my center, around which all of me turns. You are my chance at stillness. The rock in my water. I know you.
