Publisher's Synopsis
Justine tells the story of a young female artist whose life is upended when her house burns down with all of the paintings for her upcoming exhibit inside. With little time left to recreate everything she's lost, Justine embarks on a series of sexual escapades with a doomed intensity that foreshadows the novel's final, dark twist. A personal meditation on artistic identity, the creative process and the male-dominated art scene, the novel veers between the erotic and the savage, resulting in a spellbinding read from one of Denmark's edgiest feminist writers.
