Pepper Under My Nose

This is a tale of two seemingly ordinary people, Annette and Bob, who seek sexual adventure but struggle to become – or even appear to be – more than they truly are. Annette longs to embody the role of a wanton seductress, yet remains deeply repressed. Bob tries to play the part of a brutal, macho man, but he too is held back by his own inhibitions. The result is a messy and chaotic rapport between two individuals who might have loved each other but are unable, for different reasons, to surrender fully to love.

Annette and Bob often resemble zombified beings, moving through life without fully understanding why they act as they do – or even what they are doing. Their story raises profound questions about the nature of free will, suggesting that perhaps it is an illusion.

Yet, amidst their flaws and struggles, Annette and Bob remain undeniably human. It is their humanity, shining through the pages, which gives this novel its poignant and relatable edge.
