Description
Poems that circle around the themes of psychological relations and the past and present.
Filled with humour, irony and gravity. The main voice is female and the lyrical style detaches it from the time and place limits and transfers it into a personal story, a family story and a universal story.
A literary double work together with The Girl's Room, each with its own expression and character in two different genres. The works can be read in any order, and are not linearly or causally linked, but form rather two interlocking works, in which the dialogues of the drama, the movements of the poems, the states of mind and the physical spaces grow into each other.
