This is the story of a unique and unforgettable couple: Madelene, an upperclass beauty and alcoholic; and Erasmus, a 300-lb. ape. Their love affair is as emotionally and erotically charged as any female-male relationship can be. A fable for our time, this book combines the farcical humor of a Marx Brothers movie with the magic of a fairy tale and the pace of a thriller. Peter Høeg is the author of the highly acclaimed Smilla’s Sense of Snow, which was recently made into a motion picture.
