I tolfte timmen : $b En gammal, dåraktig kvinnas bekännelser

A sharp‑tongued woman in her seventies begins a diary that runs backward, as if wishing time itself could reverse. On a bleak March evening in 1927 she records telegrams, birthday flowers, and the endless swirl of social expectations that smother her marriage to Albert. Her observations—half‑confession, half satire—paint a vivid portrait of a life tangled in family ties, whispered gossip, and the small absurdities of everyday rituals.

Through witty asides and candid reflections, she exposes the strain of being a “Fru Berglöf,” the pressures of propriety, and the uneasy peace she finds in quiet laughter. Listeners are invited into her intimate world, where doctors dispense advice as if prescribing medicine for the soul, and friends become mirrors for her own restless thoughts. The narrative’s dry humor and poignant honesty make this a compelling glimpse into a mind that refuses to be silenced, even as the years stack up around her.
