Under the Sun by Hanne Marie Svendsen

The questions of what we do with life and what we have to show for it reverberate throughout the novel. The particular life we follow is that of Margrethe Thiede, who lives in a small Danish fishing town. As a child, her head is full of fairy tales, and she views the world through that lens...but she also senses (even if not quite conciously) that reality doesn't necessarily work that way...

The full review appears in Issue 3 of The Small Press Review.
