The Danish Girl Chapter 11 Summary

How It All Goes Down

  • Einar must take a train to visit the doctor at the radium institute in Rungsted.
  • There, he meets Dr. Hexler, who examines Einar by poking and prodding around his abdomen before deciding to do an X-Ray.
  • The X-Ray machine of the 1920s is huge, loud, and clunky.
  • The process takes a long time, and the longer the noisy machine whirs on, the more nervous Einar becomes.
