    Wait, Blink is the first English-language translation of award-winning Norwegian author Gunnhild Øyehaug's inventive novel of interwoven stories following a group of artistic women pursuing their ambitions despite endless distractions and disappointments.

    Sigrid is a young literature student trying to find her voice as a writer when she falls in love with an older, established author, whose lifestyle soon overwhelms her values and once-clear vision. Trine has reluctantly become a mother and struggles to create as a performance artist. The aspiring movie director Linnea scouts locations in Copenhagen for a film she will never make. As these characters' stories collide and intersect, they find that dealing with the pressures of their lives also means coming to grips with a world both frightening and joyously ridiculous.

    Wait, Blink combines wild associations, quotations, coincidences, and other peculiar details into a unique tale that is both humorous and profound. Full of the playfulness that drew acclaim for her story collection Knots, Gunnhild Øyehaug's Wait, Blink--her first novel to be translated into English--is a jolt of desire and fantasy, romance and regret: a fable about what it means to own up to the weirdness inside us all.
