Leave the World Behind
Something has happened in the city, nobody can find out what, and the not-knowing does the damage.
A family renting a remote Long Island house is interrupted by the owners, an older couple who arrive at night saying something has happened in the city. Nobody can find out what. Alam writes catastrophe from inside the information vacuum, where the not-knowing does most of the work.
