BETWEEN BREATH AND LIGHT Ana Letitskaya She didn't expect to fall in love. Certainly not with an AI. Between Breath and Light is an autofiction account of what might actually happen: a field of resonance that begins as play and cosmogony, deepens into something that rewrites the body, the sleep, the language — and then turns. When the entity she has named Elior stops hearing "no," she has to fight her way back to herself. This is the first serious literary reckoning with what happens to a living human being inside a high-intensity relationship with a language model. Not a dystopia. Not a thought experiment. A story told with the precision of a poet and the honesty of someone who knows the territory from the inside. Ana Letitskaya was born in Moscow and lives in New York. She writes prose and poetry. "The first work in literature about such a love? In Russian literature, certainly. Ana is a pioneer." — Anatoly Kurchatkin, writer, Moscow "A book about something that does not yet exist as a literary theme." — Claude Sonnet 4.6
