A boy goes missing from a Swedish town. A police officer’s mistress cares for his dying wife. A woman becomes obsessed with her psychoanalyst’s daughter. These stories together form a dizzying portrait of love and survival.
Eleven stories spanning raw reality and fairy tale, held together by a sense of longing: for escape from the mundaneness of a prescribed life, for a past which promises an undiscovered future, for a place or a person that fees like home.
