Description

Tove Ditlevsen's final volume in her autobiographical Copenhagen Trilogy is a searing portrait of a woman's journey through love, friendship, ambition, and addiction. At just twenty years old, she has already achieved fame as a published poet and the wife of a much older literary editor, but her path in life seems set to take a painful turn. As the years go by, Tove faces numerous challenges, including unwanted pregnancies, artistic failure, and destructive addiction. The central tension of her life comes into focus: the terrible lure of dependency, in all its forms, and the possibility of living freely and fearlessly as an artist on her own terms. This dark and blisteringly honest account is a powerful exploration of addiction and the way out. The Copenhagen Trilogy concludes with Dependency, a deeply personal and unflinchingly honest work that showcases Tove Ditlevsen's mastery as a writer.
