About this book

When Olavia disappears, leaving her husband and five-year-old son behind, the boy is brought to Barrøy. Ingrid soon finds herself responsible for him and drawn toward adoption. In spare, luminous prose, Roy Jacobsen writes about abandonment, responsibility, dignity and the choices that reshape more than one life. Originally written in Norwegian as “Bare en mor”, the work appears here in an Arabic translation by Mohammad Habib.
