Beschreibung
Sonja's over forty, and she's trying to move in the right direction. She's learning to drive. She's joined a meditation group. She's hoping to reconnect with her sister. But her mind keeps wandering to the landscapes of childhood: how can she escape the alienating streets of Copenhagen? A poignant tale of one woman's journey in search of herself when there's no one to ask for directions. Shortlisted for the Man Booker International Prize.
