This novel from 1990s Norway has much to say about current day American politics as it explores themes of isolationism, hysteresis, and faulty notions of cause and effect to highlight an overprivileged nation‘s inability to productively adapt to cultural change in an increasingly relativistic global marketplace of ideas.

Quasifesto Would you call it noir? I need a Nordic Noir for a challenge. 6y
mikehilbig No, it‘s not noir. It‘s a postmodernist epic. Although I could see why you might think that with the cover. Ha. 6y
mikehilbig I haven‘t read him yet, but Stiegg Larson, the guy who wrote Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is considered quite good in both popular and literary circles. 6y
Quasifesto Yeah, he was the obvious choice. 6y
