Enthusiasm and rage
By Ari Behn
Enthusiasm and fury is a love novel and a love tragedy, a story of success and disaster, of a life that was loved and admired, of Norway and Las Vegas and an astonishingly beautiful mouth.
Description
Kryx has never been modest; Self-righteous and generous, he has dealt with other people's love, attention, contempt. Then he meets Vera Sara, just as greedy and devoured, and with an insatiable hunger. Now she wants Kryx, and Kryx lets herself be taken. But also takes revenge.
Ari Behn (b. 1972) debuted in 1999 with the book Trist som faen, which caused considerable attention then it came out. Both that and his next book, the novel Bakgård (2003), have been translated into a number of languages, including Swedish, Danish and French.

Praise
… a good book that is so full of exaggerations and twisted inventions that it is simply difficult to put it down.
