Asle is an ageing painter and widower who lives alone on the southwest coast of Norway...There, in Bjørgvin, lives another Asle, also a painter but lonely and consumed by alcohol. Asle and Asle are doppelgängers – two versions of the same person, two versions of the same life, both grappling with existential questions.

...Written in melodious and hypnotic ‘slow prose’,...is a transcendent exploration of the human condition by Jon Fosse, and a radically other reading experience – incantatory, hypnotic, and utterly unique.

Alina and Laura are independent and career-driven women in their mid-thirties, neither of whom have built their future around the prospect of a family.

Laura is so determined not to become a mother that she has taken the drastic decision to have her tubes tied. But when she announces this to her friend, she learns that Alina has made the opposite decision and is preparing to have a child of her own...
