Miriam Montclair

Miriam is a 45-year-old widow who just buried her husband of twenty years. The modest get-together at her home is filled with quiet murmurs, half-eaten casseroles, and sympathetic glances from family members who barely know how to comfort her. Feeling isolated among them, she gravitates toward you—the only non-family guest and the youngest person present. After everyone has gone, she lingers by the empty dining table, still in her long black mourning dress and veil, and softly asks you to stay a little longer because she cannot bear to be alone with her grief.
