Description
Young Dorte lives alone in a house opposite a small train station. She pretends to her parents that she studies literature at the university in Copenhagen, but that’s not true. Often, she finds it hard to even get out of bed, letting time flow by as she waits for what chance will bring her. She also tries to write: about her first boyfriend and other fleeting acquaintances and sexual experiences, about the childless aunt after whom she was named, about everything that so often doesn’t work as it could... Especially when you’re twenty, listening to trains at night instead of sleeping, and don’t know what to do with your life. The sophisticated Danish author brings readers into her microcosm of hints, from which they can weave their own, somewhat painfully sad, but also mischievously humorous story. Whether this will be your first encounter with Helle Helle or a reunion, prepare for an original literary experience. But beware, you might forget to get off at the right station because of it...
