  • I’m reading Er mor død by Vigdis Hjorth. I picked it up at the library from a table set aside for staff favorites. It’s about a a woman estranged from her parents who returns to her home town at sixty and wrestles with trying to understand her mother and herself. The main character is, however, somewhat hard to like as she starts stalking her mother and sister and quite obsessed. So far the book has been pretty good. I am myself estranged from a parent, and I think I’ve been processing that on some level lately. No regrets, but these things are always complicated. I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad, my parent was also estranged from their parent. I guess it runs in the family.
