Om bogen - Cold Enough for Snow

Winner of the inaugural Novel Prize, an elegant and subtle exploration of the mysteries of our relationships to others

A mother and daughter travel from abroad to meet in Tokyo: they walk along the canals through the autumn evenings, escape the typhoon rains, share meals in small cafes and restaurants, and visit galleries to see some of the city’s most radical modern art. All the while, they talk: about the weather, horoscopes, clothes, and objects, about family, distance, and memory. But uncertainties abound. Who is really speaking here—is it only the daughter? And what is the real reason behind this elliptical, perhaps even spectral journey? At once a careful reckoning and an elegy, Cold Enough for Snow questions whether any of us speak a common language, which dimensions can contain love, and what claim we have to truly know another’s inner world.

Selected from more than 1,500 entries, Cold Enough for Snow won the Novel Prize, a new, biennial award offered by New Directions, Fitzcarraldo Editions (UK), and Giramondo (Australia), for any novel written in English that explores and expands the possibilities of the form.

Før Memmo var mine noter spredt ud over PDF'er. Nu samler et workspace alt ét sted – og jeg ser præcis, hvad der er tilbage at læse op på.

Memmos opsummeringer er guld inden eksamen. Jeg slipper for at genlæse 800 sider to uger før – kun de vigtigste dele.

AI-chatten har reddet mig aftenen før en eksamen mere end én gang. Jeg spørger, indtil jeg forstår det – og slipper for at vente på svar i en studiegruppe.
