September 27 2023

Jon Fosse’s first work since the critically acclaimed Septology, A Shining was featured in 34 works of fiction to read this fall : “Fosse has become something of a literary sensation after the popularity of his dark-horse Septology series. In his new novel, a man makes a series of wrong turns, gets out of his car, starts walking through the forest and becomes dazzled by the titular “shining” and other near-death hallucinations.”

Transit Books will publish in USA in November, so will Fitzcarraldo editions in UK.
