MODERN MYTHS · SCOTT EVANS
Impossible Things.
Ordinary Truths.
Stories about the lives we put off, the grief we carry, and the small moments that decide what remains.
Once, myths explained the world. These stories use the impossible to look at the things we still struggle to name: regret, family, forgiveness, memory and the fear that time will run out before we become who we meant to be.
