Literary blogger Books, Yo.

Tarjei Vesaas’ masterpiece The Birds has been reviewed by Books, Yo – one of the most interesting literary book review blogs on the web. This carefully considered and thought-provoking review concludes as follows:

“The Birds is tight, evocative, beautiful. Vesaas displays wonderful control; his style is one of economy, whereby each word seems to matter. Moreover, there are at least three scenes – the fate of the woodcock, Anna and Inger, and the mushroom – that will stay with me for a very long time.”
