Gamla Enskede is associated in the narrative with Kihlberg House, a domestic setting through which several separate moments in Jeanette Kihlberg’s life are anchored. The available scenes establish the house through its phone, kitchen window, and driveway rather than through a broader description of the surrounding neighborhood.

Setting and domestic routine

One night, well past midnight, Jeanette is woken by a phone call from Ivo Andrić. The same location is later marked by a quiet summer morning: Jeanette looks out from the kitchen window, notices the heat already rising from roof tiles across the road, and recognizes that the day will be hot. These details place the house within the ordinary rhythms of night and morning without offering a wider account of Gamla Enskede.

An unexpected arrival

On returning to the house, Jeanette has to brake sharply to avoid an unfamiliar red sports car parked in front of the garage door. Its number plate connects it to the gallery Åke had contacted, and Jeanette concludes that the owner is Alexandra Kowalska. The driveway thus becomes the point where an unexplained arrival is identified, turning the familiar approach to the house into a clue about who has come there.
