Forlagsbeskrivelse af One of Us is Sleeping af Josefine Klougart
The English-language debut from one of Denmarks most exciting, celebrated young writers, One of Us Is Sleeping is a haunting novel about loss in all its forms. As she returns home to visit her mother who is dying of cancer, the narrator recounts a brief, intense love affair, as well as the grief and disillusionment that follow its end. The books striking imagery and magnificent prose underpin its principal theme: the jarring contrast between the recollection of stabilityyour parents, your childhood home, your loveand the continual endings that we experience throughout our lives. A true-to-life, deeply poetic novel that works in the same vein as Anne Carson, One of Us Is Sleeping has won Klougart countless accolades and award nominationsincluding the Readers Book Awardsecuring her place as a major new voice in world literature.
