“You have two faces,” she said, astonished. “That’s not allowed. You can only wear one face at a time.”

normal life, with all its burdens and joys, ran gently through her veins

tove ditlevsen is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. her voice is unlike any i’ve read before, and i will read everything she’s ever written! my goal is to one day read something of hers in danish
