Norlin is in full command of her characters' histories and marshals a tremendous level of detail . My admiration of Colony is equally an appreciation for Alice E. Olsson, whose work to bring the story into English is so precise and vibrant that I often forgot I was reading a translation.'-Joumana Khatib, New York Times Book Review'Swedish author Annika Norlin has written an incisive, character-driven dissection of society and human nature . Colony is smart and often droll. It features strong characters and world-building, all portrayed with compassion for the nuances of human resilience and frailty.'-Cameron Woodhead, The Age & The Sydney Morning Herald'What makes this book so clever is that you unwittingly follow Emelie's trajectory of thought about the Colony: suspicious at first, then slowly seduced, before realising that things are not as perfect as they seem. The novel is testament to the power of writerly discipline.'-Laura Hackett, The Times Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
