Dentist Karl Meyer's worst nightmare comes true when his son, Ole-Jakob,
takes his own life. This tragedy is the springboard for a complex novel
posing essential questions about human experience: What does sorrow do
to a person? How can one live with the pain of unbearable loss? How far
can a man be driven by the grief and despair surrounding the death of
his child? A dark and harrowing story, drawing on elements from dreams,
fairy tales, and horror stories, the better to explore the mysterious
depths of sorrow and love, "Through the Night" is Stig S?terbakken at
his best.
