Reviews about Michael Larsen

On Pursued by Life
But what makes it so incredibly amusing are Michael Larsen´s brilliant portraits of all these farcical characters, first and foremost of Iver himself, the man with the seventeen neuroses - no, eighteen in fact, for he also suffers from a mania for counting. And of course, neuroses are comical; we know that from Woody Allen and all the other great humorists: Holberg, Dickens, the whole lot of them.

Poul Borum in Ekstra Bladet, 25.3.92

 
On Uncertainty
In Uden sikker viden, Michael Larsen has written an outstanding techno-erotic thriller that mercilessly, level-headedly and unashamedly reveals the change in human relations and feelings lurking in the brave new computer world. People are boxed in in isolation and lust, and power is in the hands of those who control the images.

Hans Andersen in Jyllands Posten, 25.3.94

 
On The Snake in Sydney
On The Snake in Sydney
Slangen i Sydney is an enormously intelligent and well-written thriller abounding in erudition. The book is an immense achievement, and it offers a perfect combination of entertainment and food for thought.

Arne Vollersen in De Tre Stiftstidender 4.11.97

 
On The Snake in Sydney
His capacity for wonderment is more earthbound than that of Peter Høeg, but his eyes are just as keen. The novel is more than a thriller about a snake charmer. It is a remarkable attempt to illuminate and understand the reality which we so easily take for granted, even though nothing in this world is immutable.

Bo Green Jensen in Weekendavisen, 7.11.97
