More about the book
Exploring themes of isolation and emotional turmoil, this collection delves into the lives of women and children facing adversity, such as single mothers and lonely elderly women. The stories reflect the author's complex life experiences, revealing a pervasive absence of love. Duvanel employs surreal imagery and a Neo-Expressionist style, often presenting the inner thoughts and dreams of her characters rather than traditional dialogue. Some narratives are even dreams retold, echoing the artistic influences of Max Ernst. An introductory essay enriches the reader's understanding of these connections.
