Product details

This book tells the story of an unusual seduction. A man receives a call in his study from a woman he has never seen. To him, she is just a voice, shy and quiet, beginning to speak as softly as the snowfall he sees outside his window. At first, he is merely curious, but gradually he falls under an almost hypnotic spell. The seduction turns into a struggle, where each wants to make the other their object, a struggle in which two worlds confront each other: the man's bourgeois existence and the hidden life of the woman, who represents the completely Other - both a desire and a danger, a utopia and a fixation. The story of this encounter, which escalates into a radical challenge, is primarily a book about the power of imagination. It reveals the ancient myth of the irresistible song.
