You Have Me to Love is an intense and dramatic novel filled with
meticulous use of detail and a forensic psychological accuracy. Its
power comes from the fierce energy of the narrative structure, the
way of handling silence and pain, and the ability to confront the
darkest areas of experience with clear-eyed sympathy and care. Jaap
Robben handles delicate, dangerous material with subtlety and
sympathy, but also with a visionary sense of truth that is masterly
and unforgettable. --Colm Toibin Mikael lives with his parents on
an island somewhere between Scotland and Norway. One day Mikael's
father saves him from drowning in the ocean, but is himself thrown
against the rocks by a wave and disappears under water. In shock
and unable to speak, Mikael blocks out the memory of what took
place, silently joining his mother in the search for his missing
father. As Mikael's mother realizes her husband has drowned, the
relationship between her and Mikael transforms: she slowly starts
to unravel, forcing the son to replace his father in every possible
way.
