The premise of this book eerily matched that of an (unpublished) short story I wrote years ago and asks how our lives would be different if we knew precisely when we would die. Erlick expands her exploration of this from the personal to the societal ...more

Audrey’s Quotes

“The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you
Don't go back to sleep!
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep!
People are going back and forth
across the doorsill where the two worlds touch,
The door is round and open
Don't go back to sleep!”
― Rumi
