review 1: The re-telling of the Cain and Able and Noah stories are invaluable. The rest is often hard to get through. I read the first two Min Kamp books first so I saw a lot of the island story at the end in this framework although I know it apparently links back to Knausgaard's first novel.Recommended if your a Knausgaard fan, if not just read the re-tellings of the Bible stories, they will make you think about human nature no matter your religious/non-religious beliefs.
review 2: A strange and highly affecting novel of ideas and lives being lived through extraordinary events. The novel is at turns a theological exploration of angels, fictional stories bringing episodes of the Old Testament to life, and personal reminiscences of one's childhood all woven together into ... morea moving whole. At times this book moved me deeply and at other times led me down new intellectual paths. Altogether this is a memorable work. less
