Life Between Seconds

by Douglas Weissman

In 'Life Between Seconds,' Douglas Weissman weaves a poignant narrative of two souls, Peter Berry and Sofia Morales, bound by loss and haunted by memories. After Peter's mother passes away, he starts collecting memories in the form of broken watches, fleeing to San Francisco to escape her ghost. Simultaneously, Sofia grapples with the disappearance of her daughter and hears her calling out, leading to the breakdown of her marriage and her escape to the same city. In the solitude of urban anonymity, Peter and Sofia find solace in each other's company as they confront the shadows of their pasts. Their shared suffering draws them together, but the resurgence of their individual traumas threatens to fracture their delicate bond. Spanning three decades, their journey explores the interstices of time, memory, and healing, hurtling them toward redemption or damnation.
