Not People I Can Depend On
By Kyrre Andreassen
Nominated for The Norwegian Bookseller Award
Description
One day, after twenty years of marriage, Svein stood in front of the microwave and declared he no longer had feelings for me. It was 2014, and he probably still thinks I never gave him enough love and that’s why the relationship ended. More people probably believe his version than mine, too, but that’s because his sphere of influence has been bigger: there’s much more traffic at Autopartner than at the municipal office.
Not People I Can Depend On is about Linda Hansen, a mother of two and a municipal employee. It’s a novel about realizing that your husband is chasing after Veronika Hagen, the only woman in the village with a modicum of glamor. It’s a book about pride, shame—and a growing desire for revenge.
