The story is simple: a love affair ends badly. But Margarita Karapanous novel tells the couples story twice, from opposing perspectives. Our sympathies are inverted; we dont know whom to trust; the distinction between truth and deception blurs, and then seems simply to dissolve. But inevitably both stories must arrive at the point of rien ne va plus: the moment in roulette when all bets are off and you either win or losethe moment when the game becomes fate.

Autorenporträt
Margarita Karapanou was born in Athens in 1946. One of Greece’s most beloved authors, she was the author of five novels. Her first novel, Kassandra and the Wolf, was translated into four languages, and was originally published in English by Harcourt Brace Jovanovich in 1974. The Sleepwalker has likewise been translated into four languages, and Karapanou’s own French translation of the book, Le Somnambule (Paris: Gallimard, 1987), won the French national prize for the best foreign novel, an honor previously awarded to Lawrence Durrell, Jorge Luis Borges, and Gabriel Garcia Marquez. She died in 2008.
