Sunfall (2024)

Sunfall is a captivating novel about light and darkness, a novel about the consequences of childhood trauma—but it can be said that it takes the subject matter a step further and describes how one can become frozen in the role of a victim, allowing it to color their perception of reality.

★★★★ "The imagery is enchanting, and perhaps therein lies the main strength of the story; the metaphors and the language are so captivating that it is hard to tear oneself away from the reading. Furthermore, the metaphors are often quite humorous, and the story as a whole is significantly humorous, even as it tackles serious subjects. At times, the humor is even pitch black ... The structure is carefully thought out, making it easy to surrender oneself to the story ... It is impossible not to feel affection for the narrator, Una, despite her being far from perfect. She is cold yet warm, soft to the bone while also being rock hard. Thus, she is both well-written and a convincing character, and the same can be said for the other characters in the book, who tend to blend into one another ... The story is characterized by original imagery, subtle humor, and clever character creation, showcasing the author's skill with the language as a beautiful witness." SB, MORGUNBLADID DAILY
