Produktbeschreibung
The unforgettable final novel from the great Danish writer and author of The Copenhagen Trilogy 'Recently escaped a long, unhappy marriage - aged 51, but youthful in spirit - wonderful son, aged 15 - household literary name - summerhouse - large flat in the city centre - temporarily incapacitated by a nervous breakdown - prefers a motorist.' Vilhelm is gone; the room where he and Lise once loved each other will soon be destroyed. When Lise places a lonely hearts advert in the newspaper, she sets off a train of tragicomic events that culminates in an annihilating, inevitable finale. Tove Ditlevsen's final novel is a masterful conclusion to a great work of writing: a blackly funny and devastating tour-de-force that pulses with life even as it journeys towards death. Translated by Sophia Hersi Smith and Jennifer Russell
