      Een man en een vrouw raken tijdens een feestje op een zomerse dag aan de praat. Vrijwel onmiddellijk zijn ze aan elkaar verslingerd en halen ze beiden hun leven overhoop, tot ze zich vragen gaan stellen. Wat weten ze van elkaar? Wat kun je echt over een ander weten? Een briljante roman over ontregeling en ontgoocheling, de botsing tussen culturen en gepolitiseerde seksualiteit.
