Recenzii
This
book!Swedish,
confessional,
shockingly
honest
about
desire,
love,
loss.
I've
read
it
twice
now
and
can't
stop
thinking
about
Carolina.Utterly
compulsive
Brutally candid. The book's power lies in Setterwall's lacerating honesty.It's the most compelling book I've read in years
Quite simply one of the best bereavement memoirs I've read.It's impossible not to draw comparisons with Karl Ove Knausgaard,but there is a unique voice here, a style of disclosure all her own, incidentally beautifully translated. It's an emotional battering ram, I thought, andI absolutely loved it
Every spare, controlled sentence has the ring of truth...A painfully clear-sighted, unsentimental novel... It's about grief in all its raw messiness, but it's also (as how could it not be?) about time ... Setterwall's refusal to impose twists or false neatness is at first admirable then, as a fragile new love begins to blossom for Carolina,gripping
Highly autobiographical,Let's Hope for the Bestexplores life after sudden bereavement: the protagonist, also called Carolina, is left a widow with a young son when her partner dies in the night.The novel tells their love story, articulating Setterwall's huge grief and guilt, as well as her newfound caution towards love and intimacy
Heart-wrenching and unsettling
Amoving and tenderwork of autofiction that depicts the obsessive interiority of grief
The kind of book thatyou'll never forget. It gets under your skin. It moves into the heart. The story is so vulnerable and direct that one cannot avoid caring for the people it is about, and to love them ... I have never read a book that, so beautifully, puts into words how difficult it is to live without - but also to live with - the one you love.One of the best, most touching and most relevant books I've ever read
An electrifying read. A book that forces itself upon you, impossible to resist and difficult to pause
Arich, honest, and poignantportrayal of the many dimensions of grief
One of the best books I've ever read... You're drawn into her raw grief, anger, guilt, bitterness, fear and loss - all of it, without any filter ... Real and alive
Breathtaking...Astoundingly well told
Amagnificentreading experience
Honest and unvarnished... Setterwall writes about the many nuances of grief, but also about love, family life and expectations of life before and after tragedy
