Synopsis

A woman awakens in a strange room with the sea roaring below. She is permitted to leave the house and enters a strange city filled with even stranger characters. But she has no memory. Where is she, and why is she being followed? Or is she? Is the eerie quality of everything about her only an illusion? Danish writer Ole Sarvig combines the detective story genre with mystery and romance to ask moral questions about the nature of the self, memory, and meaning in a world that appears utterly estranged and alienated.

Ole Sarvig, the noted Danish novelist, was the author of several works of fiction and poetry.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A woman awakens in a strange room with the sea roaring below. She has no idea where she is and, even worse, who she is. As she slowly gains consciousness and tries to piece things together, she does not get far. She does not understand the language of the country she is in, or its currency. She knows only that something is terribly wrong and that she is in mortal fear of something she cannot identify. Is the eerie quality of everything about her only an illusion? Danish writer Sarvig serves up a metaphysical tale of mystery in the vein of Graham Greene.
