What happens when the person who has been the light of your life for more than forty years is brutally torn away by a merciless, agonising cancer? What are you left with? Sorrow. Loss. Memories. Longing. Despair. Thoughts of death, of the soul’s possible afterlife. A drift of swifts. Bach. An angel of God. A strange, equivocal, metaphysical vessel. A world in flux, one where all impossibilities become possible.
Praise
“An impressive and poetic description of the various stages of the grieving process.”
5 out stars, Dagbladet
“Ole Robert Sunde’s new novel is a brutal and trailblazing portrayal of personal grief that refuses to let go and will not be able to be written off.”
6 out of 6 stars, VG
“Ole Robert Sunde has written a fascinating book about death; both unruly and comical, beautiful and fragile.”
Vårt Land
“Ole Robert Sunde goes a long way in portraying a self-centred grief – to great literary success.”
Morgenbladet
“A book about grief has to give form and expression to this amorphous emotion in order for the reader to engage with it. In this, Ole Robert Sunde succeeds – in flashes.”
NRK
“It is this almost childlike, innocent approach to the fear of death that carries the novel and makes it a great literary experience. (…) Ole Robert Sunde’s journey to the realm of death is both original and exceedingly amusing, and one can take pleasure in encounters with a wide range of characters – philosophers and writers and actors.”
