The bracing and inventive new novel of suspicions and secrecy from Herman Koch, theNew York Timesbestselling author ofThe Dinner
When
Robert Walter, popular mayor of Amsterdam, sees his wife toss her head
back with laughter while chatting to one of his aldermen at a New Year’s
reception, he immediately suspects the worst. Despite their long and
happy marriage, Robert is convinced that Sylvia is cheating on him–with
the respectable alderman who is dedicated to the environment, no less.
The man who wants to spoil the capital’s skyline with wind turbines.
The
New Year’s reception marks the end of the “happy family” era that the
mayor has enjoyed for so long. His wife and their daughter, Diana,
however, are not aware of his suspicions and carry on as usual. Robert
starts spending a lot of time and energy “behaving normally.” Naturally,
his normal behavior is far more suspicious. Normally Robert’s not
really present when he’s at home–he’s preoccupied with his phone, the
newspapers, and his own thoughts. But now Robert is so sure he’ll miss
the clues if he doesn’t pay attention that he starts to be almost
alarmingly attentive and interested–ultimately losing himself in
increasingly panicked and paranoid trains of thought.
Written with Herman Koch’s trademark originality, playfulness, and edge, The Ditch is
a wildly clever–and guttingly familiar–story of a man whose sadistic
skill for undermining himself and his marriage comes to cost him nearly
everything.
