The story is told through switching POVs from 5 interconnected characters/friends. Each character gets one chapter which I didn’t feel like was enough to get to know them, especially considering this is a character driven story with no plot.
The novel is basically no thoughts just vibes. Quick read because of it’s formatting otherwise I might have DNFd. I will however say kudos to the author for writing something unique compared to other Greenlandic authors. Every other fiction book I could find for Greenland was crime/mystery which is why I chose this instead. It wasn’t great or bad, just average and probably one I’ll forget but I’d be willing to check out more from Korneliussen! I guess I’ll have to turn to non fiction and my own research to learn more about Greenland 🇬🇱
