Language serves as the vital force in "All That Fall," highlighting themes of existence and creation. The narrative centers on Maddy Rooney, who grapples with the contrast between her desire for youth and vitality and the harsh reality of aging and decay. Through dialogue, characters manifest their identities, yet the inaudible signifies absence. This tension between creation and non-existence drives Maddy's internal struggle, reflecting broader existential concerns within the work.
