In the following excerpt, Silas takes a train to a city he's never visited to interview for a job he's not sure he wants. He brings a paperback to look busy, but he keeps rereading the same page. Across the aisle, an elderly woman knits and drops a ball of yarn that rolls under Silas's seat. Silas hesitates, then retrieves it, noticing how the strand trails back to her hands. What is the function of the ball of yarn that rolls under Silas's seat?
