Nightsongs by Jon Fosse

They have a child and life changes. He can't go out and she can't stay in. He writes words that no one will publish and she takes a lover. "I don't know what it is/ that always make something happen/ But it must be something/ because something always happens/ I don't want anything to happen/ and then something/ happens all the same."
