Complete Works

Gothenburg is waiting for the retrospective of Gustav Becker. The legendary enfant terrible will present his works – paintings that promised eternal fame to their creator even during his lifetime. From all the billboards around the city, the attentive gaze... of the artist's beloved model, the wife of his best friend, Cecilia Berg, watches over. She disappeared fifteen years ago. Slipped away, leaving her husband, two children, and questions that her daughter Raquel is now trying to find answers to. And it seems she has managed to discover a clue hidden between the lines of a book that inadvertently fell into her hands. But is it worth believing the words? Her father Martin Berg spent half his life trying to cope with words. The publisher, who once dreamed of a career as a writer, has entrenched himself in drafts that have not turned into a novel in a quarter of a century. And life, during this time, has become history – a grand canvas, from the sixties to the present day. And now memories are laid on the canvases, teasing with bright colors. Is it really time to take stock? Or is the most interesting yet to come?
