Reeling from a breakup a young Danish woman recovers her sense of self through conversations with parents friends and strangers. A sweet and quirky debut about heartbreak memory and the endless potential of language.” ―Kirkus Reviews The narrator’s long-term girlfriend has just broken things off forcing her to move back in with her father a Pink Floyd–loving priest. While she desperately tries to convince her girlfriend to reconsider the rest of the world bombards her with advice: from her childhood friend Mulle to her kindly therapist to her overbearing mother and card-playing father. Bumbling through the fog of disillusionment the narrator gives herself permission to grieve philosophize and be generally outrageous until at last she sees a light at the end of the tunnel. My Mother Says is a compendium of conversations between people who talk past one another in a universe of misplaced good intentions. In this whirlwind of memories confessions temper tantrums and declarations of love Pilgaard’s sheer affection for her characters turns the pain of a broken heart into a heartwarming comedy of errors.
