Recensione

'My Brother and His Brother' is one of the most compelling love stories to be published in a long time. (Grady Harp)

It is original, and the tone is 'telling'. I find the novel very intimate, wildly skillful and touching. And somehow very Nordic. Håkan Lindquist is a true writer. (Ned Rorem)
