Book Summary
Meet Wild Boars! Or maybe you better not. After all, they are dirty
and smelly, bad-tempered and rude. They might try to fool you, but
don't worry, you won't believe them. There's no such thing as a nice
wild boar. Hmmm. This insufferable gang of boars will mess up your
house and set a very bad example indeed. If you are foolish enough
to fall in love with them, they will break your heart (and most of
your furniture). So don't say we didn't warn you!

What drives a man to stay in a marriage, in a job? What forces him away? Is love or conscience enough to overcome the darker, stronger urges of the natural world? The Unnamed is a deeply felt, luminous novel about modern life, ancient yearnings, and the power of human understanding.
