The trouble with happiness Is a harrowing short story collection about love, family and marriages. It describes depression, despair and abuse as people in mid century Copenhagen search for happiness and freedom

Fav quotes:
- She had taken on the attitudes that she carried the burdens of the world
- She had gotten married and therefor was recognized as someone should could be desired or loved
- Hate is just as void of sense and love
- Nothing is ever the way it is
- She had a conviction that love and marriage rarely had anything to do with each other.
- His clothes smelled of distant lost things
- Everything he loves I admire too while also knowing that I don’t measure up to them
