This is a novel of remembered rites of passage. It is a fairly dark story of the insecurities and uncertainties of our modern lives, with occasional sunshine and itīs showers, and sometimes fearful results. But bad things happen, bad and good things are part of the patchwork of our lives. The general atmosphere, of ferocious sex, betrayal, treachery and casual or less casual encounters, is convincing. Mr. Karlsson has written a literary novel, convincing if not entirely comfortable.
