Cheated twice, he returns to his boat, where he falls asleep as waves rock the hull. Soon he is awakened by a voice: a woman is calling his name from the quay. There stands Eline, the secret love of his youth--and the namesake of his boat--with a packed suitcase. Eline pleads to come aboard. In what follows, this single encounter reverberates across three stories: three narrators, three deaths.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe first new work from Jon Fosse since he was awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Literature, \u003ci\u003eVaim\u003c\/i\u003e is a spectral novel that wanders and watches, imbued with things half-seen, perhaps not of this world yet still caught in its rhythms. The first in a trilogy of novels, it continues his investigation into the human condition: the subtle encounters that come to define our lives and our deaths, and what lies in the threshold between what is and what is longed for.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-13: 9798893380217\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Fosse, Jon, Searls, Damion\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Transit Books\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Transit Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover (Oct 2025)","offer_id":46080926580933,"sku":"9798893380217","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9798893380217.jpg?v=1776041727","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/vaim","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
