Let Them Come paints a fascinating portrait of a mother and woman. It is a brutal but beautiful novel about death, about the big and small things that make up a life. About being two and the fear of being left behind.
Tom goes into the forest. In this place, his mother has moved into an overgrown house by a lake. They have not seen each other for two years, and now she has become seriously ill. As death slowly circles in, Tom looks back on the life that has been: hers, his, theirs. Through memories, two lives marked by restlessness, love, and a certain talent for misfortune are conjured. And now one of the characters in this narrative is about to be lost, in the forest that is slowly closing in around them.
What do you do with the last piece of time you have together? Should Tom tell her where he has been for the last two years? And why?
