Choose Which Hand

Strong stuff it is, vibrating on the edge of the world of art. Dressed in the form of fiction, the novel is first and foremost a transposed personal document, which shakes you right down to soles of your feet.

In this her first novel, Vita Andersen has confirmed and developed a great talent. Her voice is unmistakable and naked and shows an amazing insight in suffering – and sympathy. It is a novel, one can hardly lay aside, once one has started, even though it constantly amd almost monotonously insisting rubs salt into open wounds.

Sebastian's Love

A pointillistic novel of surprising intensity and linguistic imagination. In spite of the child star in the leading role, there is nothing nauseatingly cute about the book […] Something breaks free – and breaks freer in this strange world according to Sebastion. So perhaps the smile was real. And funny it is as well, at its own rampagenous times it surpasses Panduro in the art of the grotesque .

[…] With a highly personal blend of stern reality and tragi-comic situation comedy Vita Andersen actually succeeds in balancing on a razor’s edge, where the subtle dialogue and the tone of voice makes sure that the eeriness, which often lies played down in the scenes, is kept in check.
