Professional reviews
"A funny, razor-sharp and truthful family drama that unravels the fantasy we have of a perfect Scandinavian society. ‘Shot through with understated black humour and nicely balanced between tender and acerbic, this impressive novel is a forceful reminder that there is much more to Scandinavian writing than crime fiction.’ SUNDAY TIMES"
