‘Winter Stories’ Praised in Denmark

The Danish edition Ingvild H. Rishøi’s beloved short story collection Winter Stories has been lauded in a recommendation round-up from local news website TjekFredenborg. Here’s an excerpt:

“Ingvild H. Rishøi’s Winter Stories achieves something that is rare in literature. The short stories are steeped in the grey and socially realistic, but are then turned in a direction that makes them light, bright and moving to read. […] Rishøi manages to intertwine human destinies with big existential questions and societal knots, so that one really feels that something is at stake – and that, fortunately, there is hope in the everyday life and the darkness.”

Winter Stories was published in Denmark by Batzer on March 21st, 2015.
