Reviews
Praise for The Unseen "Even by his high standards, his magnificent new novel The Unseen is Jacobsen's finest to date, as blunt as it is subtle and is easily among the best books I have ever read." --Irish Times "A beautifully crafted novel ... Quite simply a brilliant piece of work ... Rendered beautifully into English by Don Bartlett and Don Shaw, The Unseen is a towering achievement that would be a deserved Booker International winner." --New European "A profound interrogation of freedom and fate, as well as a fascinating portrait of a vanished time, written in prose as clear and washed clean as the world after a storm." --The Guardian "The subtle translation, with its invented dialect, conveys a timeless, provincial voice ... The Unseen is a blunt, brilliant book." --Financial Times "A beautifully written and profoundly moving exploration of conflict, love and human endurance." --St. Catherines Standard, Praise for The Unseen "Even by his high standards, his magnificent new novel The Unseen is Jacobsen's finest to date, as blunt as it is subtle and is easily among the best books I have ever read."--Irish Times "A beautifully crafted novel . . .
