“A novel is good when it expresses somethingyou have felt vaguely within yourself. That’s exactly what Kjersti Ericsson does in this autumn’s novel. Even though Ericsson is more than 40 years older than me, the women’s struggle she portrays is familiar”
6/6 stars, Stavanger Aftenblad
“A well-written book about the personal costs of being in the front lines in the fight for women’s rights … With her undisputed storytelling talent, Kjersti Ericsson again writes about an important them based on her own experiences”

“This summer I have been lucky enough to have Kjersti Ericsson as part of my holiday reading. She has written a wise, painful book about the part of women’s liberation struggle that went on inside the home, and inside the family, and about how the women’s movement by not shying away from what seemed to be tiny and personal, managed to transform shame to injustice … Ericsson’s books is marked by wisdom and profound reflections, and not least with an ability to empathize with other people and see things from their perspective … The way Ericsson writes about these subjects, with humour when it’s possible and with great seriousness when that’s needed, makes this a book that will make you both laugh and cry – and which hopefully will make you want to defend those victories that have been achieved”
