Los Angeles Review of Books: Vidar Sundstøl's Minnesota Trilogy
Elise Moser on The Ravens and Only the Dead and The Land of Dreams.
[EXCERPT] -- Sundstøl fearlessly presents his readers with a pretty unattractive protagonist. Overweight, ham-handed in his social interactions, awkward with his dysfunctional family, Lance Hansen is no Lisbeth Salander; on the contrary, he is the antithesis of her sharp-witted, sexually confident urbanite. He does not leap to conclusions, he gropes, and he is wrong most of the time. But he is dogged, and persistence pays.
