Krátky popis
A relatively young woman, aged thirty. She married in her early
twenties, had two children. It is winter.January and minus 14°C,
white, frosty mist around the parked car, around the spruces, the
mailbox on its post, but higher up the sky is blue, clear, the sun
has come back. She has written in her diary that she is waiting for
the heartbreak that will turn her into her true self. She has an
impending sense of doom or possibly her own death.Can passion be
mistaken for love? When Ida meets Arnold, also married, at a
conference, she impulsively invites him to share her bed. She
returns home, already half-obsessed, and the dissolution of her
marriage and break-up of her family pass almost without her
noticing. Arnold has a more relaxed attitude toward the affair.But
neither his coolness nor the alarming talk she hears about him can
dampen her desire. When she finally has Arnold for herself, all the
surface niceties and indulgences they enjoy - travel, sex, beers
for breakfast and cocktails for dinner - can't sustain the
sweetness of the fantasy. Their mounting jealousies and
insecurities metastasize, resulting in violence and addiction.In
urgent prose, with layers of candid and vivid detail, Hjorth shows
just how devastating love can be when it binds the wrong people.
