Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Following one woman's journey from a troubled girlhood in working-class Copenhagen through her struggle to live on her own terms, The Copenhagen Trilogy is a searingly honest, utterly immersive portrayal of love, friendship, art, ambition and the terrible lure of addiction, from one of Denmark's most celebrated 20th-century writers.

What the critics say

"Utterly, agonisingly compulsive...a masterpiece." (Liz Jensen, Guardian)

"Sharp, tough and tender...wrenching sadness and pitch-black comedy. Ditlevsen can pivot from hilarity to heartbreak in a trice." (Boyd Tonkin, Spectator)

"Astonishing, honest, entirely revealing and, in the end, devastating. Ditlevsen's trilogy is remarkable not only for its honesty and lyricism; these are books that journey deep into the darkest reaches of human experience and return, fatally wounded, but still eloquent." (Observer)
