Rezension zu „Child Wonder “
'A book that makes you laugh and cry - what more can you wish for? ... Child Wonder is nothing less than a perfect masterpiece.' Dagsavisen. 'What a wonderful novel!' V.G. 'Jacobsen's novel could be a nostalgia-fest but avoids this fate through the precision and unadorned clarity of its prose There is nothing cosy or sentimental in this picture of a childhood of barely respectable poverty, in which family tensions are quite literally papered over with fashionable wallpaper A wonderful coming of age novel by this Norwegian author whom I hope we shall come to know better in English' Sarah Bower, Historical Novels Society.
