The novel by contemporary Canadian-British writer Rachel Cusk (born 1967), which has collected many awards, consists of ten meetings and conversations. In an unbearably hot summer in Athens, the protagonist, a well-known novelist, is teaching a creative writing course. Her new acquaintances and interlocutors are her neighbors, students and teachers, who willingly talk about themselves - sharing their beliefs, dreams, fantasies, anxieties and regrets. Against the background of their stories, as if by contrast, a portrait of the narrator - a woman who learns to live with the consciousness of great loss. "Contour" - the first novel of a trilogy that changed the ideas about this traditional literary form and significantly expanded the boundaries of modern literature. For the first time in Russian.
