Abstract

This text is a collection of two separate pieces, "Novels" and "Aunt Rozalija," which explore themes of burnout, loneliness, mortality, and the complexities of human relationships. In "Novels," the narrator reflects on their struggle with burnout and their attempts to find solace in reading and social media. They also visit a doctor and undergo tests. In "Aunt Rozalija," the narrator attends their aunt's funeral and reflects on their memories of her. The text delves into the absence of a person in their final years and the subsequent lack of remembrance after their passing. It suggests that the person had already departed from their relationships before any farewells could be made, and concludes with the mention of a headstone being ordered for the person's grave less than a month later.
