My name is Ela. I am twenty-six. Mom and Dad divorced when I was twenty and had just moved out. Something died in me then. I don't understand what's the point of working, having a family, loving, being loved, when you're just going to die anyway? At work, Jimmy seeks my gaze. But love is nothing to me because love only dies when everything falls apart. Albin, the property manager, wants me to go out with his dog Sniff. Which is a bulldog. With a pacemaker. And there is Klara. She is six years old and lives in my basement and needs someone to take care of her. But I can't even take care of myself.
Johanna Nilsson's fourth novel is a tender and funny depiction of a young woman's path towards daring to create her own life.
