“An outsider’s view of a remote forest colony changes everyone’s lives in this debut novel from Swedish author Norlin... Norlin’s writing (as translated by Olsson) is clever and incisive, poking fun at modern society and the woodland community in equal measure. The colony’s strengths are great but so are its weaknesses. Ultimately, this is a treatise on humanity, on the things people need and the power and frailty of human connection. This is a novel that will stick with you.”
