Beschreibung

<p><em>"By writing down what happened, by telling the story . . . I'm trying to bring them together into one body-the woman from 2021 and the girl from 1983. I don't know if it can be done."</em></p><p>Paris, a winter's night in 1983. She is sixteen years old, lost in unfamiliar streets. On a scrap of paper in her pocket is the address of a photographer, K, thirty years her senior. Almost four decades later, as her life and the world around her begin to unravel, the grown woman seeks to comprehend the young girl of before.</p><p>Set in Oslo, New York, and Paris, <em>Girl, 1983</em> is a quest through layers of memory and oblivion. As in her landmark previous work, <em>Unquiet</em>, Linn Ullmann's narrator continues to probe the elegiac sway of memory as she looks for ways to disclose a long-guarded secret. A delineation of time and place over the course of a life, this remarkable novel insistently crisscrosses the path of a wayward sixteen-year-old girl lost in Paris.</p><p><em>Girl, 1983</em> is a raw and haunting exposure of beauty and forgetting, desire and shame, power and powerlessness.</p>
