Translated from the Norwegian by Damion Searls

2022 International Booker Prize, Finalist
2022 National Book Award, Finalist
New York Times Editors’ Choice

Fosse’s fusing of the commonplace and the existential, together with his dramatic forays into the past, make for a relentlessly consuming work: already Septology feels momentous.
