Reviews

[Roy-Petter Johansen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sterkt om menn, kvinner og om menn og kvinner. Om sorg. Om å ha blitt mer satt i faste mønster enn man er klar over selv. Om familie. Om erotikk.
Og så, i det handlingen flytter seg til midt blant poplene på Sankthanshaugen, også (på sett og vis) om hvordan det gikk med Elsi Lund.
