Verseim

Thirteen stories whose narrators meet us in very different situations, though we sense throughout that they live in the same world, as if we stood on our balcony looking at the prefab block opposite. We see the looming urban monster from outside while glimpsing the everyday dramas played out in its separate homes. The stories reach deep into people and their relationships, with psychological insight and a pitiless eye that can also show things in their banality.
