Nothing is ever exactly perfect-only close enough to cast a straight shadow.
In a long, cold rectangle of an apartment, an unnamed narrator wages a silent, daily war against drift: a salt shaker one millimeter too far, a yellow flyer that violates the mail slot, a neighbor's furniture scraping through the wall. Every object must be flush, every lock tested twice, every soft surface banished to glass or stone.
Memory arrives uninvited-childhood signatures, crumbling roof edges, a toy boat lost to the gutter-each one a reminder that containment is temporary. The furnace sighs ozone, the refrigerator hums its tireless lie of permanence, and the cold outside presses against the glass, waiting for the smallest human error.
Written in precise, hypnotic prose, The Geometry of Containment is a haunting portrait of a mind that measures safety in shadows and seals the world out one ritual at a time. For readers of Ottessa Moshfegh and Ling Ma, this is OCD fiction at its most intimate and unflinching.
