Departure(s) is a work of fiction but that doesnt mean its not true.It is the story of a man called Stephen and a woman called Jean, who fall in love when they are young and again when they are old. It is the story of an elderly Jack Russell called Jimmy, enviably oblivious to his own mortality.It is also the story of how the body fails us, whether through age, illness, accident or intent. And it is the story of how experiences fade into anecdotes, and then into memory. Does it matter if what we remember really happened? Or does it just matter that it mattered enough to be remembered?It begins at the end of life but it doesnt end there. Ultimately, its about the only things that ever really mattered: how we find happiness in this life, and when it is time to say goodbye.

Amb una prosa elegant i colpidora, Anna Molina teixeix una historia de vides que s'entrecreuen i ens recorda que, fins i tot les papallones, per volar, han d'haver oblidat que un dia no tenien ales. En Marcel i la Nora es troben a l'adolescencia, en aquell limit on l'amor es descoberta i abisme; pero quan les seves peces començaven a encaixar, la vida els separa. Anys despres, les seves veus s'alternen per reconstruir allo que la memoria va gravar en els records: un amor adolescent interromput, secrets familiars que supuren, la recerca d'una identitat que nomes l'escriptura pot redimir. De Mas d'en Roig a Barcelona, de la innocencia a la lucidesa, L'oblit de les papallones es una novel·la sobre les formes que adopta l'amor -i la seva absencia-, sobre la culpa, la reparacio i la necessitat d'escriure per comprendre.

A college student enters a fake relationship with her childhood best friend—who also happens to be her first love—in this rom-com.
