Tirza


Ben Minton

Author Arnon Grunberg has twice won the AKO Literature Prize, the Dutch equivalent of the Booker, and his latest work to be translated into English, Tirza, was a best-seller in Europe. In Tirza, a book editor has lost his wife and his job and is about to lose his beloved daughter Tirza as she embarks on a trip with her boyfriend. Comic and heartbreaking.
