The Trio

Elegant, reflective and sumptuously atmospheric, a debut novel about three young lovers navigating the risks and possibilities of intimacy Thora, August and Hugo come from different worlds - one an art school dreamer, one a wealthy scion of the old world elite, and one an ordinary boy from the suburbs - but over the course of two sky-blue summers in Stockholm they are drawn together magnetically. Many years later, Hugo is living alone in New York. He hasn`t spoken to Thora for over two decades. He didn`t reach out to her when August died. But one day their daughter turns up, fully grown, on his doorstep, with questions about her parents that only Hugo can answer - and the memories of those luminous days come flooding back. Modern yet timeless, poignant and euphoric, The Trio is a novel about the path not taken, the people we might have become, and the relationships which shape and haunt us long after they come to a close.
