With undisguised glee, a nameless narrator unravels twisted tales of moral turmoil, all of which are brought to an abrupt close by a cataclysmic collision of time and space. Anomaly is an exhilarating, provocative carnival of a novel, from one of Europe’s most distinctive literary voices.
New Year''s Eve. The last day of the last year of human existence. A high-ranking minister criss-crosses the city with blood on his hands, a dying necrophile attempts to go clean before God, and a traumatised nurse is pressured into keeping a powerful secret. With undisguised glee, a nameless narrator unravels these twisted tales of moral turmoil, all of which are brought to an abrupt close by a cataclysmic collision of time and space. What will remain on New Year''s Day? In a cabin in the Alps, the last people on earth - a musicologist and her young daughter - search for a five-hundred-year-old musical score that might explain the catastrophe. Outside the cabin, hidden in shadow, a sinister figure waits for them to accept their fate.
