A review by hannahlee
Aliss at the Fire by Jon Fosse

dark emotional reflective fast-paced

3.75

An evocative portrait of three generations of family trauma on the fjords of Norway. I don't typically go in much for stream-of-consciousness, but I liked Fosse's flow here as he flitted between timelines and perspectives without the burden of punctuation. It worked well for this short piece, which was heavy on atmosphere and emotion. I would be interested to read some of his plays!
