I hvert øyeblikk er vi fortsatt i live by Tom Malmquist
3.0
I receved this book as an ARC from Gyldendal. It's not exactly something I would normally read, but I don't have any regrets. I wasn't aware that it was non-ficiton until I started reading it.
The book starts very abruptly with Karin, Tom's wife, being admitted to hospital. She is pregnant and they are worried about their unborn child. Karin's situaton deteriorates very quickly. A healthy baby girl is delivered by ceasarian. Within days Tom is left alone to care for a premature baby, Karin dies.
This book is an unsentimental account of events. I have rarely read such a cliché-free book. It's not as bleak as expected either. It covers bureaucratic conundrums caused by the fact that Tom and Karin weren't married. Livia, the daughter, isn't automatically Tom's. All in all, much more readable than first expected.
