Overstaying

Meer over het boek

The narrative features an impudent young woman living in her parents' house, trapped in a hometown she despises. When an enigmatic visitor arrives, her life becomes consumed by him, though his true nature remains ambiguous—he could be a lover, a mooch, or something else entirely. Ariane Koch employs an absurdist style, creating a spatial, non-linear narrative that invites readers to explore various paths through her imaginative and chaotic storytelling. This debut work blends humor with existential themes, earning critical acclaim.
