'I was subordinate to him from the beginning, and I must have known early on that he was destined to be my doom'A  woman in postwar Vienna walks a tightrope between the two men in her  life. There is her lover Ivan, beautiful and unavailable, who obsesses  her. And there is Malina, the civil servant with whom she shares an  apartment: reserved, fastidious, exacting, chillingly calm. As the  balance of power between them starts to shift, she feels her fragile  identity unravelling, gradually revealing the dark, bruised heart of her  past.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product__accordion accordion quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdetails id=\"Details-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003csummary role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"summary__title\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ch2 class=\"h4 accordion__title inline-richtext\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProduct Information\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg class=\"icon icon-caret\" viewbox=\"0 0 10 6\"\u003e\u003cpath fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M9.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 0 0 .708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 0 0 0-.708\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003c\/summary\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__content rte\" id=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"metafield-multi_line_text_field\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ingeborg Bachmann\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDate of Publication:\u003c\/b\u003e 27\/06\/2019\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePagination:\u003c\/b\u003e 304 pages\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Modern Classics\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eImprint:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Classics\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublished By:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books Ltd\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBook Classification:\u003c\/b\u003e Modern \u0026amp; contemporary fiction (post c 1945)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 205 x 128 x 18\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eISBN13\/EAN\/SKU:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780241366240\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\u003c\/details\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ingeborg Bachmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44378332856564,"sku":"9780241360668","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/2180\/9347\/files\/9780241360668.jpg?v=1758372421","url":"https:\/\/mountfloridabooks.live\/products\/9780241360668","provider":"Mount Florida Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
