A Line in the World Praised in The New York Times

The US edition of Dorthe Nors’s A Line in the World has been praised in yet another review, this time from The New York Times:

“An immediacy and an intimacy filter through her spare, brilliant prose about the region’s history, shipwrecks and other stories. The reader becomes immersed in Nors’s interior weather as well as the harsh external elements of the rugged Jutland Peninsula. At the same time, her essays provoke reflection on one’s own personal geography and how memories map onto specific landscapes and bodies of water.”

A Line in the World was published in the US by Graywolf Press on November 1st.
