Description
When Ellinor addresses her deceased friend Anna, she doesn't expect a reply. Yet with Georg's death, Ellinor finds herself able to cut ties with her assumed life with surprising ease.
Returning to the area where she grew up, away from the adopted comfort of her home, Ellinor is forced to confront her own history: her marriage to Henning, their friendship with Anna and Georg, and even her mother's story. Secrets - both our own and those of others - can only be shared with the dead.
Often I Am Happy by Jens Christian Grøndahl is a profoundly moving work of fiction that explores the power of secrets to shape who we are and who we love.
