We're never quite sure what made ChloƩ take a flight to an unnamed country in South America.

This series of short vignettes provides a glimpse of ChloƩ's scattered thoughts as she attempts to adjust to life in a new setting. Amidst the quirky observational humour of her internal monologue, a story of loneliness emerges, as she tries (for the most part, unsuccessfully) to form meaningful connections with the people she meets, and does her best to avoid, in her new surroundings.

At times biting and sarcastic, at times beautiful and reflective, this debut novel takes an intimate look at depression and life, with a sharp and witty narrator who rides the line between self-aware and self-deprecating. A quirky, sweet story of overcoming hopelessness and finding human connection.
