The Girl at the Door
Veronica Raimo, Stash Luczkiw (translation)
A tense, provocative and nuanced novel about a rape accusation in an idyllic commune
I was in my sixth month when the girl came knocking.
The girl came empty handed. On the threshold, her hair down, her jeans tight.
'Are you the professor’s wife?' the girl asked me. 'I have to speak to you,' she said.
'The professor raped me,' the girl said.
