Sea Beneath My Window

A woman awakens in a strange room with the sea roaring below. She is permitted to leave the house and enters a strange city filled with even stranger characters. But she has no memory. Where is she, and why is she being followed? Or is she? Is the eerie quality of everything about her only an illusion? Danish writer Ole Sarvig combines the detective story genre with mystery and romance to ask moral questions about the nature of the self, memory, and meaning in a world that appears utterly estranged and alienated.

Ole Sarvig , the noted Danish novelist, was the author of several works of fiction and poetry.
