LOSS concerns a failed writer working as a handyman in an old Manhattan apartment building with a strange history and numerous oddball tenants. The penthouse is owned by a bestselling novelist and his wife, the nameless narrator's longtime unrequited love, who soon goes missing. This novella spotlights the fear of missing out on one's greatest hopes and romantic dreams. AND talking monkeys.
