RESIDU
Residu is a contemporary urban novel about letting go and being unable to let go, set against the backdrop of two parallel lives. Lizzie doesn’t dwell on memories. Until her father asks her to attend the tenth-anniversary memorial service for her late mother. Everything in her life – work and love – is temporary and uncommitted. Meanwhile, she helps Lenny, a homeless man, to beg more effectively using modern marketing strategies. Benjamin works in an above-ground car park. On 11 November (Armistice Day and his birthday), he sees a boy walking past who reminds him of the son he left behind many years ago in his beloved’s maternity ward. This encourages him to go for a walk – through the city and through his memory.
