On the cusp of her fortieth birthday, Karro wants for nothing. She’s the heir to a Swedish publishing house, wife to a rising London politician, mother to a beautiful son, and moneyed enough to waste her days on literature and the occasional dose of opium in their large Edwardian home. When Karro is introduced to, and falls for, Won-sik, a younger American artist, the affair upends her sedate existence. Society’s repercussions are immediate and severe. As Karro confronts her own desires in a desperate pursuit of happiness, her world, and sense of self, unravel.
Moving seamlessly between the high-society circles of London, Stockholm, Côte d’Azur, and New York, Karro bravely revisits the age-old concept of the fallen woman and asks what it means to fall from grace today. An unflinching reimagining of Anna Karenina told in a first-person both delicate and piercing, Karro is a psychologically astute and searingly honest portrait of a woman trying, but failing, to find herself in motherhood and marriage. Will Karro be able to contend with the weight of obligations to family and society in the face of true desire?
