This is the story of Trond, a 67 year old man who moves to a remote area of Norway in his quest for solitude. A chance encounter causes him to reflect on traumatic events during his childhood. Per Petterson's descriptions of the Norwegian landscape have a dreamlike quality. He unwinds this intriguing story with simple elegance yet with great depth. (Claire Bane - bwl 44 February 2008) |
