See you Tomorrow
makes most Norwegian contemporary literature taste like watery tea, and Norwegian crime authors’ prose about as elegant and smooth as the Norwegian football team playing against Argentina’

‘600 pages of pure energy … a charming cock-and-bull story filled with love for twisted criminals, hormonal teenagers and the oil city Stavanger … this is a novel with momentum. It’s entertaining, alternately funny and thrilling’
Dagsavisen

‘A strikingly accurate portrayal of Stavanger’s underside … a collective novel where all participants are portrayed equally clearly, equally credibly and with equal care.
See You Tomorrow
is impressive in every aspect – from its composition, language and credibility to its wit, palette, multiple crescendos. The research for this book must have taken a year of his life’

‘Rare linguistic energy, powerful progress and a delightful combination of humour and rawness … a highlight in Renberg’s authorship … a juicy linguistic orgy fit to be consumed in large quantities’
Hamar Arbeiderblad

‘An author with a literary expression, a human colorfulness, a life-giving love for speed and pace and a completely outrageous devotion to the characters described. One surfs incomprehensibly easily and effortlessly from one situation to another. Not least because the language is so unique and rude, with slang in the most surprising combinations. It is a magnificent book’

is an achievement in technical power. In vital, maximalist prose, the characters’ perspectives change in a weaving movement, slowly taking us to an amazing crescendo … new, fresh and heartfelt’

is 600 pages of maximalism, not to mention a virtualistic tour de force, which at its best is crushing proof of how productively far you can reach beyond grey standard prose’

‘An action-packed cross between youth novel and thriller … an arresting novel where Renberg shows off his best side … suspenseful from the first till last page’

‘Wow, what a novel! … Renberg’s pitch-black novel from Stavanger is filled with momentum, brutality, humour, poetry and musicality. Renberg possesses a formidable talent for storytelling – a novel of remarkable tempo and drive, and a horror-like ending, grotesque to the point where it becomes comic’
