Sketch for a hypothetical story.
Eusapia is so far the plan for the construction a narrative work that combines a personal interest for notions of memory and ambiguity of personal experience with collective beliefs and customs, placing them in a fictional provincial setting, which is a reading of the quintessential nowhere town. It is an absurdist piece in which the idea of inescapable destiny and illusion of agency are rendered through circular storytelling employing repetition, randomness and variation.
Eusapia is loosely inspired by Italo Calvino's short story bearing the same title.
