There’s Only Alice
A Novella
When he met Alice, he believed in love again. When she left, he remembered everything.
In this hypnotic tale of desire and disillusionment, a man reconstructs the memory of a vanished woman through fragments of touch, scent, and silence. Alice was generous with her body and guarded with her soul—a mirror he could not stop gazing into. What began as tenderness became obsession. What remained after was not her, but the echo of his own longing.
Told in prose as intimate as a confession, There’s Only Alice is a meditation on memory, masculinity, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive those we can’t forget.
Inspired by the sensual psychological fiction of Anaïs Nin and Marguerite Duras, this lyrical novella explores the silent terrain between intimacy and illusion, between the stories we write about others—and those we rewrite about ourselves.
