Vilhelm's Room - Tove Ditlevsen entering and leaving locked roomsVilhelm is gone; the room where he and Lise once loved each other will soon be destroyed. When Lise places a lonely hearts advert in the newspaper, she sets off a train of tragicomic events that culminates in an annihilating, inevitable finale. Tove Ditlevsens final novel is a masterful conclusion to a great work of writing: a blackly funny and devastating tour de force that pulses with life even as it journeys towards death.
