โœฆ Synopsis


In this short, beautifully written novel, the grande dame of Dutch literature recounts a story of romance and death while performing a midnight baking ritual.

A woman gets up in the middle of a wintry night and starts baking a Bundt cake while her lover sleeps upstairs. When it's time for her to take the cake out of the oven, we have consumed a story of romance and death. The narrator was widowed years before and is trying to find new passion. But the memory of her deceased husband and a shameful incident holds her in its grasp. Why did he do it?

Margriet de Moor tells a gripping love story about endings and demise, rage and jealousy, knowledge and ambiguity -- and the possibility of new beginnings.
