Descriere magazin:
"A perfect novel--taut and seductive." --Brandon Taylor , author of Real Life and Filthy Animals " Intimacies is a haunting, precise, and morally astute novel that reads like a psychological thriller.... Katie Kitamura is a wonder." -- Dana Spiotta , author of Innocents and Others and Eat the Document A novel from the author of A Separation , an electrifying story about a woman caught between many truths. An interpreter has come to The Hague to escape New York and work at the International Court. A woman of many languages and identities, she is looking for a place to finally call home. She\'s drawn into simmering personal dramas: her lover, Adriaan, is separated from his wife but still entangled in his marriage. Her friend Jana witnesses a seemingly random act of violence, a crime the interpreter becomes increasingly obsessed with as she befriends the victim\'s sister. And she\'s pulled into an explosive political controversy when she\'s asked to interpret for a former president accused of war crimes. A woman of quiet passion, she confronts power, love, and violence, both in her personal intimacies and in her work at the Court. She is soon pushed to the precipice, where betrayal and heartbreak threaten to overwhelm her, forcing her to decide what she wants from her life. About author(s): Katie Kitamura \'s most recent novel, A Separation , was a finalist for the Premio Gregor von Rezzori and a New York Times Notable Book. It was named a best book of the year by over a dozen publications and translated into sixteen languages, and is being adapted for film. Her two previous novels, Gone to the Forest and The Longshot , were both finalists for the New York Public Library\'s Young Lions Fiction Award. A recipient of fellowships from the Lannan Foundation and Santa Maddalena Foundation, Katie has written for publications including The New York Times , The Guardian , Granta, BOMB Magazine, Triple Canopy , and Frieze. She teaches in the creative writing program at New York University.
