An astonishing, hallucinatory journey into the frozen heart of Denmark's colonial darkness... A fervid, exhilarating evocation of faith versus hypocrisy, empathy versus dislocation and desperate rebellion versus grim destiny, The Prophets of Eternal Fjord is a slow-release depth charge of a novel whose reverberations bear the terrible poignancy of global and timely relevance Guardian Superb... A raw, hugely powerful chronicle of lives lived on the edge... The Prophets of Eternal Fjord has a grandeur and a compass that few novels this year will match Sunday Times Gripping... A milestone, a masterpiece Information (Denmark) The result of this novel is symphonic: politics, history, sexuality, and religion deftly interwoven. The combination is perfectly balanced, fascinating, and irresistible Le Monde (France)
