In my profile picture, you find my lovely seraph Charlotte sitting next to me in a restaurant on East Side Manhattan, 2005. Despite such smartness, we live in Denmark - not N.Y.C.

Take it away!

  • A Tidewater Morning
    • Rated 4 stars

    The most fantastic, poetic language and stories from the Mid-war years and the Second World War. Not a war book, though. It't about real people and their inter-relations. A great read.

    • Rated 3 stars

    Komisk skildring af ægteskabets bagsider. Mand og kone er omtrent lige irriterende. Velskrevet, som kun Loe gør det

    Ekspedition Shakespeare

    by Erlend Loe & Petter Amundsen
    • Rated 3 stars

    Pagtens Ark findes på Oak Island
    Ved læsning af denne bog kommer til kort. Her står jeg så gud ske lov cirka samme sted som den skeptiske forfatter og interviewer (Erlend Loe) af en konspirationsbegejstret norsk organist, der heller ikke kan finde modtræk til den alt for fantastiske historie, som organisten ruller ud. Og sådan skal det vel i grunden også være, for hvad er mere ærgerligt end en god konspirationsteori, der går i logisk opløsning?
    "Læs den kolossalt underholdende og ikke-fiktive bog og fortæl os, hvor Petter Amundsens indsigt stopper og hans fantasi tager over. Og hvis man gerne vil vide lidt mere om hvem denne organist er, ja så røber bogen, at han er familiefar og organist ved Skøyen Kirke, korleder, skiinstruktør, gelatineimportør, forhenværende forhandler af vin og ure, boligspekulant, børsmægler – og aktivt medlem af den norske Frimurerloge" (Claus Rothstein anmeldelse i WA)

  • The Hollow Man
    • Rated 3 stars

    This book is interesting, but there's a hatch. It's a rare story, somewhat prolonged. but somehow intruiging at the same time. I'm a science and maths fan - and this helps - no doubt. Hmmm. I am not jumping cheerfully after finishing this story anyway...

  • Atombombens betydning for Volhelm Funks ungdom
    • Rated 3 stars

    20 kapitlers nedtælling til menneskehedens selvdestruktion i vægtig romandebut.

    Jan Sonnergaards første roman bevæger sig ikke langt væk fra hans tre novellesamlinger. Skildringen af samfundets råddenskab er stadig i højsædet, og samfundskritikken strømmer ud mellem linjerne.

    Humorously written non-fiction on religion - Dawkins is a hard-boiled atheist and pro natural selection kind of guy. And he's bright and knowledgeable and good to read, despite his sometimes somewhat black/while and square views regarding the question of respect of other people's religion). Dawkins is really a one
