A beautifully rendered, keenly detailed, and sexually frank novel about motherhood and marriage, love and infidelity. Spanning three generations in the life a Norwegian family, 'Before You Sleep' sparkles with wisdom, acuity, and style and carries with it the excitement of a genuine literary discovery. As the novel moves from present-day Oslo to 1930's Brooklyn, Ullmann tells her story through the voices of the eccentric and formidable women of the Blom family whose passions and prejudices have formed an intricate web that bonds grandmother to mother, and mother to child.
