Su questo libro

Recensione:

"[A] QUIETLY MOVING STORY OF FAMILY, FRIENDSHIP, AND LOVE . . . In a novel rich in mystical overtones . . . Fredriksson explores relations between fantasy, myth, and reality."
--Booklist

"Fredriksson depicts the psychological aftermath of cruelty through the ebb and flow of interior monologues, adhering to time-honored parallels between the characters' harsh longings and the stark beauty of the remote Swedish seascape. . . . The novel contrasts the human capacity for suffering with a heartfelt optimism."
--Publishers Weekly
