Editor's Note:
Een naamloze vrouw, M, nodigt een bekende schilder, de eveneens naamloze L, uit om naar een afgelegen streek aan de kust te komen. Ze woont daar samen met haar gezin, en op hun uitgestrekte landerijen staat ook een buitenhuisje, de Tweede Plaats, waar L zijn intrek kan nemen. Ze hoopt met hem te kunnen discussiëren over zijn werk en de kunst, maar L arriveert samen met een mooie jonge vriendin en blijkt een ontwrichtende invloed op zijn omgeving te hebben. Naarmate de irritaties over en weer toenemen, wordt pijnlijk duidelijk waar ieders grenzen liggen. In typisch Cuskiaanse stijl – beeldend, soms bijtend en altijd scherp geobserveerd – komt de positie van de vrouw ten opzichte van de man aan de orde, de ingewikkelde verhoudingen binnen relaties en hoe moeilijk het is om normen en waarden te handhaven, in jezelf en in de buitenwereld. Tweede plaats onderzoekt de stelling dat kunst ons zowel kan redden als vernietigen, terwijl de menselijke ziel worstelt met duistere demonen.
