Description
Justine by Iben Mondrup is a spellbinding novel that veers between the erotic and the savage. When her house burns down, taking all her artworks for an upcoming exhibit with it, Justine embarks on a series of intense sexual encounters to recreate what she's lost. Through fragmented memories and flashbacks, we see Justine's journey as a young artist navigating the misogynistic art world. As she challenges its expectations in both the studio and her personal life, Justine's story becomes a personal meditation on artistic identity, creative process, and the male-dominated art scene. Iben Mondrup's prose is both provocative and evocative, bringing to life the inner turmoil of this complex character. Translated by Kerri A. Pierce, Justine is a thought-provoking read from one of Denmark's most acclaimed contemporary feminist writers.
