Beskrivelse
A gripping tale set in Berlin on 11 July 1986, where a chance encounter on a bus sparks an intense connection between a young student and an older married man. Their shared love for music and art ignites a passionate but secretive affair.
An intimate exploration of love, betrayal, and change during a pivotal moment in history.
Winner of the International Booker Prize 2024, Kairos delves into the fragile and tumultuous relationship between two lovers caught in a web of secrecy and desire. When she strays for just one night, his inability to forgive fractures their bond, opening the door to cruelty, punishment, and the struggle for control.
Against the backdrop of a crumbling GDR, the story captures the collapse of old certainties and loyalties, as a new era dawns-one filled with both significant progress and deep loss. From acclaimed German author Jenny Erpenbeck, this novel offers a poignant and powerful portrait of love’s complexities amid seismic historical change.
