In ROOM17, Raphael returns to France after years in Boston to face the imminent death of his mother, who lies sedated in a clinic. As he sits by her bedside, he embarks on a deeply emotional journey through memory, regret, and the quiet intimacy of their shared past.

Through fleeting moments, fragments of laughter, and the profound silence of goodbye, Raphael reflects on the love that shaped him and the fragility of life itself. Interwoven with philosophical and literary quotes, the novel contemplates the beauty of impermanence and the enduring imprint of those we love.

Told in lyrical prose and structured as a series of reflections, ROOM17 invites the reader into a space of vulnerability, where time slows and emotions swell. It is a moving tribute to the quiet strength of maternal love and the resilience found in remembrance.

For readers who cherish introspective literary fiction, ROOM17 offers a poignant and unforgettable reading experience-one that lingers long after the final page.
