In an unnamed coastal city home to many refugees, a mother of a
displaced family searches for her child, calling her name as she
wanders along the cliffside road where her daughter used to work.
She searches and searches until, devoid of hope and frantic with
grief, she throws herself into the sea, leaving her other children
behind. Bearing witness to this suicide is another woman – on a
business trip from a distant country, with a swollen belly that
later gives birth to a stillborn baby. In the wake of her pain, the
second woman remembers other losses – of a language, a country,
an identity – when once her family fled a distant war. Lyrical
and devastating, The Singularity is a study of grief,
migration and motherhood from one of Sweden's most exciting new
novelists.
