Beyond Part 2 Chapter 4

In which a young wife attends her husband’s concert and perceives the contrast between the fervour of his artistry and the fading flame of their intimate connection, while navigating the ornate and somewhat shadowy company that surrounds them. She encounters a young dancer of curious charm and grace, whose presence and art stir in her a complex admixture of admiration and wistful reflection on the nature of love and belonging.
