Momentan nu sunt oferte disponibile.

Beginning in the middle of crisis, then accelerating through plots that grow stranger by the page, Naja Marie Aidt s stories have a feel all their own. Though they are built around the common themes of sex, love, desire, and gender, Aidt pushes them into her own desperate, frantic realm. In one, a whore shows up unannounced at a man s apartment, roosts in his living room, and then violently threatens him when he tries to make her leave. In another, a wife takes her husband to a city where it is women, not men, who are the dominant sexbut was it all a hallucination when she finds herself tied to a board and dragged back to his car? And in the unforgettable Blackcurrant, two young women who have turned away from men and toward lesbianism abscond to a farm, where they discover that their neighbor s son is experimenting with his own kind of sexuality. The first book from the widely lauded Aidt to reach the English language, ``Baboon`` delivers audacious writing that careens toward bizarre, yet utterly truthful, realizations.
