Norwegian Literature, Fiction

In 1833, a young Englishman known as Don Carlos (Charles Darwin) finds himself in Buenos Aires. There he meets a casual laborer, Giovanni Graciani, from Genoa, Italy. Thorvald Steen recounts Giovanni's abandonment of faith and the political upheavals of Argentine history during a voyage that forever changed the way man perceives the world.

Together these two novellas reveal a philosophical and almost metaphysical battle between scientific logic and blind faith. France's La Monde described them as "remarkable and intense"; Denmark's Politikenwrote: "Thorvald Steen constructs like a new Cees Nooteboom, expressing himself on a lazy Sunday..."; Sweden's Nordvästra Skånes Tidnigar described the novels as works wherein "one is captivated and sucked into a landscape with colors that can be bright or odious, or clear, almost translucent." In the United States Kirkus Reviews called the first novel "a rich intellectual adventure"; and Argentina's Clarin named it "One of the year's most important books."
