US Praise for ‘Winter Stories’

Prior to its publication, the US edition of Ingvild H. Rishøi’s beloved short story collection Winter Stories received a glowing review in a recommendation round-up from important daily newspaper Seattle Times, saying this:

“Award-winning writer Ingvild Rishøi’s Winter Stories, translated by Diane Oatley […], is a lush triptych set against the darkness of a brutal Norwegian winter. […] Following the publication of her national bestseller, Brightly Shining, this new collection insists that unexpected forms of kindness can appear in the bleakest of circumstances.”

Winter Stories was published in the US by Grove Atlantic on December 2nd, 2025.
