Carl Malmberg, an older married man who works as a doctor at the hospital, stands out. Our protagonist enters into a passionate affair with him, though struggles with the knowledge that he may never be hers. At the same time, she finds her life further complicated as she wonders whether Dr Malmberg's sexual interest in her might be centred around the lopsided power dynamic between them, and whether a mysterious girl named Alex might be in love with her. Therese Bohman's The Other Woman is a passionate psychological drama with questions of power and sexuality.
