Reviews
Few are able to take language closer to life than Kristine Naess, she is one of the very best authors of our generation -- Karl Ove Knausgaard Disciplined, fraughtly tense... It is a dark, claustrophobic examination of three women in varying states of despairing anxiety... This is a dense work of uncomfortable honesty -- David Mills * Sunday Times * Only Human combines a crime mystery from the media with original portraits of women in three generations ... three highly individual and yet interconnected stories, which together gives us a surprisingly multidimensional view at the lives we live and how we emerge as people for one another -- jury of The Nordic Council's Literary Award
