One Hundred Thirteen is a beautiful, sad, and thought-provoking novel about a family who loses a child.
Irene and Peder lead a busy, modern family life with “yours” and “mine” children – until the youngest child, the one they have together, suddenly dies. To the idealistic medical doctor dad Peder, organ donation is the only morally correct choice after the tragic loss, something he talks Irene into. After a while both Peder and Irene are forced to ask questions about the moral and emotional splits they are stuck in.
One Hundred Thirteen is a novel about living in the shadow of someone else’s desire to do what’s right. Because what does it actually mean to do the right thing?
