Produktinformationen "Natalja's Stories"
From one of Denmark's most revered authors, a startlingly original novel about a migrant's fate, told across several generationsThis is the story of a young woman who is spirited away to St. Petersburg from Copenhagen by a lovestruck admirer. When she dies after the Revolution, her ashes are carried back to Denmark, igniting a chain reaction of further stories, told and retold by the women in her family against a shifting ground of meaning. We meet murderers and fable-like characters, such as the hilarious and unsettling Viktor Blanke, who manages to seduce not one but three generations of mothers and daughters. Natalja, we discover, cannot be held in one place. Rather than giving in to the tragedy that befalls her, she wills herself to become someone else, reinventing her family's narrative one irresistible tale at a time.Tantalizing and full of wit, this remarkable, shape-shifting novel is available in English for the first time.Translated by Denise Newman
