“Eirik Ingebrigtsen writes immensely well. In addition, Plain View is an original story. (…) Since his literary debut in 2001, Ingebrigtsen has proven himself to be a precise and talented voice, and Plain View is not a disgrace to his literary work. Ingebrigtsen writes stories that are different in an easygoing way. (…) Nothing is feigned or clumsily done, his prose is both sensuous and humorously dry. (…) Plain View is a conglomerate demonstrating Ingebrigtsen’s strength as a stylist. (…) Plain View is a book to become thrilled at. The story is original and gives me unexpected side effects. I’m seduced by the language and the writer’s eye – and I really feel like going hiking in the mountains.”
Dag og Tid

“A screwy story about the hunt for sight, which quivers with knowledge. … It is both crafty and nonstandard…The language crackles and creaks, the book has an abundance of great formulations.”
Klassekampen

“A very interesting novel about the phenomenology of sight… Eirik Ingebrigtsen delivers an intellectual, challenging, and rewarding novel…. Plain View is a sensual novel which specifically problematizes the use of senses.
