Bog beskrivelse

As compulsively page-turning as a thriller, Carmen Martin Gaite''s drama of broken dreams, lies, and the search for love is an intense meditation on the strange adventure of living

"Ever since the beginning of the world, living and dying have been two sides of one coin, tossed in the air - But for me - to be perfectly honest - living''s the strange thing"

The protagonist of this novel, a 35-year-old woman who has lived hard and loved hard, has just lost her mother. Struggling to keep her curiosity about an inexplicable world intact, she finds her precarious equilibrium constantly besieged by resurfacing oddballs from her past and her own tendency to daydream. To force a little structure into her life, she decides to pick up her old, unfinished doctoral dissertation about an extravagant 18th century adventurer. As she wades through old papers in a dusty archive, she is forced to confront her own strange childhood, her parents'' strange relationship, and the feelings that bond her to the strange architect she shares a life with.
