The ditch : a novel / Herman Koch ; translated from the Dutch by Sam Garrett.
Despite their long and happy marriage, Robert Walter, popular mayor of Amsterdam, is convinced that Sylvia is cheating on him - with a respectable alderman. Robert starts spending a lot of time and energy "behaving normally." Naturally, his normal behavior is far more suspicious - ultimately losing himself in increasingly panicked and paranoid trains of thought.
