Tomorrow

'A haunting, beautifully written lament for the isolating power of love.' (Financial Times) Every year Elisabeth Danziger travels to the Danish island of Mn to spend a week at The Tamarisks, a lavish hotel which was once her family's second home. Elisabeth stays in the same room and walks familiar paths. She visits the local museum; she unscrews the panel of an old bath tub to retrieve the crumbling piece of paper on which is written her name and that of Daniel Eberhardt, her beloved cousin. Elisabeth's annual pilgrimage is part of a longstanding family promise to meet again in Mn after their separation during the war. Only she has fulfilled the promise, and she has no reason to suspect this year will be any different from all the others... 'Winningly written in unshowy but graceful prose, full of precise observations and unexpected lines. A compelling book with a surprise ending.' (Observer)
