She Talked to Me About Maple Trees, the Smile of Water, and Eternity
About This Novel
A story about the time that we have ignored, a story about procrastination, about tomorrow, and about the present moment. In the eyes of most people, 26-year-old Alexander Kronos undoubtedly lived an enviable life: a perfect figure, a management position with a good salary, and a newly rented two-bedroom apartment... But the unexpected death of his neighbor's old lady Elise made him realize what he could have done, but missed the minute that might have saved her life. Like Alexander's life, each minute is just a step leading to the next, and the cycle goes on and on, and he never seems to really exist. Later, the crying black woman in the Paris subway, the rock singer with long hair, a maple leaf floating from nowhere, the deer crossing the road during the journey, the neighbor Mr. Gunnar, the woman with a maple tree in her name... The clips and stories in 19 different minutes were intertwined, and many small gears turned together, and he began to focus on every unparalleled minute in eternal time.
