Ett så starkt ljus

For Sara, each new crush dissolves almost before it has started, and what remains is a vague, overwhelming sorrow. Joanna, an actress with great presence, holds her at arm's length; her feelings for Linnéa, a girl she has loved since childhood, have never been put into words. Then C comes into her life, and longing and helplessness grow suddenly deeper and stranger. Set in a wintry Stockholm, the novel follows a young woman, and a generation, searching for love outside the expected norms.
