Description
The Polyglot Lovers by Lina Wolff is a witty and nuanced exploration of feminism in the #metoo era. When Ellinor's life takes an unexpected turn, she finds herself stranded with a literary critic, forcing her to confront her own desires and sense of self.
Meanwhile, Max Lamas searches for his ideal partner - someone who can understand him in every tongue. His quest leads him to Italy, where he becomes embroiled in the lives of those around him, including a marchesa whose family is on the brink of ruin. At the heart of this complex web is a handwritten manuscript that leaves no one unaffected.
Pleasure and love are elusive things, but Wolff's sharp prose brings them into focus with unflinching honesty. A fiercely witty contribution to contemporary literature, The Polyglot Lovers is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the complexities of human relationships.
