A Body of Water


Everybody needs his memories. They keep the wolf of insignificance from the door. – Saul Bellow
A man and a woman–wake up side by side in a house on a mountaintop that’s encircled by water with absolutely no recollection of their lives before. Are they husband and wife? One-night lovers? Face some of our greatest worries: Alzheimer’s, memory loss, and waking in midlife to a relatively meaningless existence.
