Years after Caspers's unnamed narrator loses her first lover in a tragic accident, she finds herself wondering, What did she want from me? What are the things that matter? In vivid, richly detailed vignettes, the book tracks the cyclical nature of grief and remembrance across a life fractured by loss. At times dryly comical, at other times radiantly surreal, The Fifth Woman is a testament to the resurrecting power of memory and enduring love.
