Monsterhuman by Kjersti Skomsvold
When Kjersti A. Skomsvold was seventeen years old and about to start engineering studies at college, she found herself almost unable to move. Laid out like a relic - she begins to compose a novel on Post-it notes that she sticks on the wall above her bed.
"Bold, witty, and deeply existential, Monsterhuman is a bildungsroman that turns the story of a young woman's chronic fatigue syndrome into an intellectual journey, at once grave and comic" * Paris Review *
"Another gifted Norwegian." * Irish Times *
"A masterwork of control and characterization." [The Faster I Walk, the Smaller I Am] * National Public Radio *
"Norwegian author Kjersti Skomsvold's debut [The Faster I Walk, the Smaller I Am] . . . is a sparkling jewel of a novel." * Publishing Perspectives *
