ALONE WITH YOU IN THE ETHER - OLIVIE BLAKE KART...

From Olivie Blake  the New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six   comes a literary 
intimate study of time  space  and the nature of love. Alone with You in the Ether explores
what it means to be unwell  and how to face the fractures of yourself and still love as if
you're not broken.   CHICAGO  SOMETIME- Two people meet in the Art Institute by chance. Prior
to their encounter  he is a doctoral student who manages his destructive thoughts with
compulsive calculations about time travel  she is a bipolar counterfeit artist  undergoing
court-ordered psychotherapy. By the end of the story  these things will still be true. But this
is not a story about endings.  For Regan  people are predictable and tedious  including and
perhaps especially herself. She copes with the dreariness of existence by living impulsively 
imagining a new  alternate timeline being created in the wake of every rash decision.  To Aldo
the world feels disturbingly chaotic. He gets through his days by erecting a wall of routine: a
backbeat of rules and formulas that keep him going. Without them  the entire framework of his
existence would collapse.   For Regan and Aldo  life has been a matter of resigning themselves
to the blueprints of inevitability-until the two meet. Could six conversations with a stranger
be the variable that shakes up the entire simulation?
