  1. Just finished it. Best novel I've read for some time. Utterly captivating. Got under my skin.

  2. Very good review, by the way. You're right about this book - it draws you in, involves you and makes you care for the characters, particularly Trond. The atmosphere he creates is powerful indeed. It's a book I won't forget easily.

  4. Yes, I agree, an excellent review, concise, perceptive, suggestive - and not just because I like the novel. The point about antiphonal structure is particularly astute.
