Married. Memories. Tove Ditlevsen tells the story. Helgi J. Halldórsson cand.mag. translated.
In her memoir Gift, Danish poet Tove Ditlevsen tells openly and candidly about the ten most turbulent years of her life, from the time she married the 20-year-old editor Viggo F. Möller, a 53-year-old eccentric. Through him, she enters a group of young poets and artists and soon becomes one of the most widely read writers in Denmark. These are fruitful but difficult years. She longs for security and normality , but her life is rootless and abnormal. Her first three marriages end in divorce, and she is overcome by drug addiction, when the love and patience of one man comes to her rescue. (Cover text).
