Overview

When success turns into solitude: A moving novella about what we leave behind on our way to the top. We spend years building our lives, only to realize we forgot to live in them. Jakob is in his mid-thirties and has made it. He is a celebrated architect, his designs are precise, his penthouse is flawless, and his bank account is full. He has curated his life like an exhibition: everything is perfectly lit, everything is valuable, and nothing is to be touched. But when he returns to his silent apartment after a student party where he felt like a foreign body, the façade cracks. He realizes that his life is a museum. A museum of missed days, sacrificed friendships, and suppressed emotions. Perfection is not a triumph; it is a golden cage. Instead of going to the office the next morning, Jakob makes a decision. Armed with a canvas, oil paints, and a bottle of whiskey, he begins a radical act of self-liberation. In a single, cathartic night, he destroys the sterile order of his existence to find the man he once was beneath the rubble. ""The Museum of Missed Days"" is an atmospheric, profound novella about modern alienation and the healing power of creative chaos. J.C. Stone paints the portrait of a generation that has learned to function but forgotten how to burn. For readers of literary fiction who question if ""this is all there is.""
