The Devil Book

So beguiling… the book as a whole is...an undeniable success: funny and angry, tender and timely

Skinny

Covering much of the same ground as her last novel — the interrelation between money, sex, violence and gender, capital’s power to console or benumb — The Devil Book shares the same bristling, didactic prose, but with a welcome barbed humour... a lacerating literary harnessing of rage at a decrepit system, held together by Nordenhof’s defiantly unique voice

Financial Times

Nordenhof has a sort of literary X factor, cutting her story down to only the most interesting parts. As Scandinavian septologies go, it’s more fun than Jon Fosse’s, more ballsy than Solvej Balle’s. The final section…fumes with fury

Observer

[Readers] will fall in love with Nordenhof’s project purely as text, as properly experimental writing whose moral and artistic purpose are so deeply entwined as to make them inextricable… There is another fire here: a passionate, magnetic commitment to writing as a political act. I will continue to follow this series, wherever it goes

Guardian

So tender and pure that it is very difficult not to be moved

Kritik

Even better than the first
