A note from the Author and Publisher of time and tenses in Metamorphosis Any time that assumptions are made concerning a person's, or a character's, so-called sanity, said assumptions have to be made based on the observer's perspective; for one person's "sane" is another’s "insanity." And as you will soon discover, have discovered, or are discovering - it is this bastardization of perspective, of Cynthia’s, which makes up the fare of this novel…is she sane? Insane? Mad? Level-headed? Let me put it like Has there ever been a moment you’ve wanted to escape from, return to, or experience afresh? Good. Then you might understand Cynthia's predicament in the coming pages. The dance necessitated as Cynthia attempts to do all three - to get away from, to return to, and to remain in the moment when her life was, is, will be again torn apart… As such, you may notice some places where our presentation of "tenses" seems... damaged. These slips are intentional. Cynthia is intentional. I wish you the best of luck as you embark on this Metamorphosis.
