Now I have finally read the last part of the Copenhagen Trilogy by Tove Ditlevsen. „Dependency" is the title of this also short book. It is indeed the most spectacular of the three parts (but also the most challenging for me). It relentlessly describes the story of a drug addiction from the inside. No wonder that the humour of the first two parts is somewhat lost in this topic. It is still extremely gripping to have the power of addiction described in this way.

Right after the first part, I have now read the second part of the Copenhagen trilogy by this great female writer. Youth is the title and that is exactly what this unfortunately very slim book is about. With a clear, humorous style, she describes her years after leaving school and her path to becoming a poet. Now I have really turned into a Tove Ditlevsen fan.

It took me a while to immerse myself in the world of this book. This is the first part of the "Copenhagen Trilogy" by Danish female writer Tove Ditlevsen. Her own language creates an amazing connection from the heart of the working-class child in 1920s Copenhagen directly to the future, to us today. Now I have finished the book and want to buy the second part immediately. What a discovery.
