Bøger af Edy Poppy

Icy, intricate, and unflinching, Edy Poppy’s Coming. Apart. captures the zeniths and nadirs of the human experience. With the stark, poetic voice that garnered her collection Anatomy. Monotony. cult status in Norway and abroad, the writer–performance artist offers a vision of sexuality and alienation unlike any other. Coming. Apart. is Poppy’s first collection of short fiction, and her second to be published in English. Beautifully translated from the original Norwegian by Dr. May-Brit Akerholt, her stories explore moments of labyrinthine intimacy with a cold intensity that proves impossible to forget.

Lou is a French novelist living in London, married to Var, a small-town Norwegian woman. Together they form a couple with rather unusual ideas about marital fidelity. Told in a brisk, economical style, Poppy's novel compellingly explores the complicated matter of needing and seeking intimacy.
