Emily forever. Scranger M.N.

Emily nineteen, and she is pregnant, and Pablo, the father of the child, seems to do not intend to take any part in her life anymore. And already in the medical card, as if the sentence appears a formulation of the “single mother”. Emily’s mother also raised her daughter alone, and now she moves to her to help around the house. Emily works to the last in the grocery store, and almost every person in her life, from the boss to a neighbor-priest, is striking at least somehow support her, in appearance, such an unhappy, such fragile poor thing Emily.

“Emily forever” is a novel about social inequality, everyday life and searching for something that would help to come to terms with this everyday life. The omniscient and ubiquitous storyteller tells about Emily’s life, not missing the chance to insert an ironic comment or penetrate the head to one of the heroes to look at Emily as they see her-those who know her know how it will turn out. Her whole life. The book of a young Norwegian writer is saturated with a stubborn, sometimes paradoxical love of life, subtle humor, the spirit of indestructible unity and an ongoing, although sometimes invisible struggle.
