"Some distances can't be measured in miles."
The campaign has ended — the novel lives on.
About the Novel
What does it mean to truly see another person?
The Undistancing is a debut literary novel about the invisible distances we keep between ourselves and the people we love — and what it costs us to close them.
Set across two timelines and three cities, it follows characters whose lives are shaped by what they cannot say, what they refuse to see, and the rare, terrifying moments when the space between people collapses entirely.
Meiyen Kennedy writes with precision and tenderness about the architecture of human connection — the silences that protect us, and the ones that slowly undo us.
