Very short, maybe a bit of a cheat. Had read it before, maybe 30+ years ago.

Enigmatic, about a woman in Germany in the 1970's whose life is destroyed by salacious newspaper allegations about the company she keeps, a complacent educated member of the bourgeois.

Read it late at night when tired, worth a (and short enough to) re-read over a weekend.
