A review by yilliun
The Copenhagen Trilogy: Childhood; Youth; Dependency by Tove Ditlevsen

dark emotional reflective medium-paced

5.0

Her ability as a poet shines through the pages. It’s tough to comprehend how this book only covers her life until she was in her early thirties. So much of her early childhood and teen angst felt so relevant to how I was at those same ages.
