Each of these nine stories shows a different fact of love - love of violence, love as redemption, love as suffering, even as wisdom - and each has as a background theme one of the nine classical disciplines: mathematics, dance, law, physics, visual arts, medicine, drama, music and astronomy.

Peter Høeg was born in 1957 and followed various callings - dancer, actor, fencer, sailor, mountaineer - before he turned seriously to writing. He published his first novel, The History of Danish Dreams, in 1988, and was called 'the foremost writer of his generation' by Information magazine. His crime novel Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow received universal acclaim and was an international bestseller.
This is the first collection of short stories Peter Hoeg published in Denmark. Each tale set on or around the 19th March 1929, the stories depict a great variety of characters and social settings, each possessive of Hoeg's uniquely lyrical powers of observation.
