'I wish we could preserve our relationship as it is now for a long time. I wish we could remain strangers.' A man walks across an old European capital. Heavy snow falls. He has come here from far away, hoping to forget. Instead, he remembers: home, war, lost friends. Complicity. In the company of a new friend and alive to the new experiences of the city, he moves through the snow and his complicated history in search of an apartment. 'Exceptional - a book rich in ideas and poetry. Its power is accumulative and it moves with a calm and yet ineitable progress. It is a deeply mysterious and admirable book.' Hisham Matar
