Jonas Eika in Rave Review in Finnish Magazine
The Finnish edition of After the Sun, Jonas Eika’s critically acclaimed short story collection, has received a rave review from Finnish magazine Voima. Here is an excerpt:
“Jonas Eika’s dreamlike short stories broaden the reality of the reader and reflects on power and marginality. In the Danish author’s short stories, the boundaries between the self and the world disappear, and the world flows unobstructed into the individuals’ consciousness. A radically open mind reveals both the social balance of power and the seeds of solidarity. […] Eika’s surreal expression is neither hallucinatory nor delusional, instead showing the utmost absurdity in ordinary phenomena, relationships and settings.”
After the Sun was published in Finland by Kosmos on April 17th, 2023.
