Snorri & Frosti

By Ben Myers

"You know, sometimes I wake up and for a few moments I think I am teenager again. Sometimes I feel like I am a young man and all the people who have died are still here, and I have my whole life ahead of me. Then I remember." A haunting novella from Benjamin Myers about two old brothers, in a cabin, in a north European country, chopping wood, rubbing along, living and... well, we don't want to say more. But this is a special, strange and wonderfully touching piece of writing. Writing to love.
