   Summary

   When Kaveh looks into the mirror, the person who stares back at him is someone he does not recognise. He raises his hand to touch his hair with trembling fingers and the stranger in the mirror does the same, but it feels like staring into a black hole, like leaning over water and seeing a distorted face peering back. And well, maybe Kaveh just isn’t real at all–maybe he’s just a shell, with dead eyes and gray skin and limp hair like a toy with all its stuffing pulled out. Maybe he has no body at all and his consciousness is bereft of reality, or maybe all of this is fake and nothing is real and the world doesn’t even exist.
