The Copenhagen Trilogy by Tove Ditlevsen

article image placeholderTove Ditlevsen’s Art of Estrangement
When this book was originally released, it was released in three installments Childhood Youth, and there's actually a word in Danish that at once means poison and marriage, but in English they chose the word dependency for this final book or section of her story. I linked an article here that I think does an incredible job at reviewing this book and giving you a deeper sense of what it's about, and if you'd be interested in reading it, I highly recommend discovering Ditlisten's writing

The true story of a working-class Danish girl growing up in the 1920s and 30s. #bookreview https://s.swell.life/SSVE3huSSUjj8B2
