Written in melodious and hypnotic 'slow prose', The Other Name: Septology I-II is an indelible and poignant exploration of the human condition by Jon Fosse, 'a major European writer' (Karl Ove Knausgaard), in which everything is always there, and past and present flow together.
Concrete notions about subjectivity and the self are called into question over the course of this hypnotic doppelganger piece, translated from New Norwegian by Damion Searls.
