My Work
Olga Ravn
Prior to and during the Olympic Games, vehicle access will be restricted in Paris, so orders may take longer than usual to process.
After giving birth, Anna is utterly lost. She and her family move to the unfamiliar, snowy city of Stockholm. Anxiety threatens to completely engulf Anna, who obsessively devours online news and compulsively orders clothes she can't afford. To avoid sinking deeper into her depression, she forces herself to read and write. My Work is a novel about the unique and fundamental experience of giving birth, mixing different literary forms - fiction, essay, poetry, memoir, and letters - to explore the relationship between motherhood, work, individuality, and literature.Translated from Danish by Sophia Hersi Smith & Jennifer Russell.
