Oh, dear.

I will tell you about – I'll tell you about – Let's go back to your highbrow.

I shouldn't have said it was nourishing, like, how good for you, when I, like, I should have said, what about this filthy piece of filth from a Danish filster?

So the device of this book is that the narrator is a woman and she is a vintage bookseller, an antiquarian bookseller.

She runs a business with her husband.

She goes to Paris to, you know, attend a book fair or whatever.

And it's the 18th of November.

And then she goes to bed in a hotel room.

She wakes up and it's the 18th of November again.

Oh, Groundhog Day.

Exactly.

I've seen this movie.

It's called Groundhog Day.

And she's like, shut up.

Oh, my God.

Stop interrupting, your honour.

You've surrendered your right to comment.

Okay.

And then for the rest of the book it is the 18th of November again and she expands into the day and she lives it again and again and she knows what's going on but nobody around her does.

And she sees her husband and she knows exactly what he does that day and she kind of works around him.
