This review is from: Markus and the Girls (Hardcover)
In MARKUS AND THE GIRLS, Klaus Hagerup, a critically acclaimed children's novelist from Norway, illustrates the difficulties of early pubescent childhood. Markus, thirteen, has been in love with every girl in his grade, and now is in love with the lovely Ellen Christine.
With his best friend, Sigmund, at his side, Markus experiences the daily troubles coupled with teenage life as he slowly begins his journey into the confusing world of love, in its many shapes and forms. Markus' journeys and friendships, and the diverse, deep characters, make this book one to pick up off the bookshelves. Despite falling under the category of a perhaps typical 'coming-of-age' story, Markus' complex nature and Hagerup's choice of character kept me entertained throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, resulting from its unique characterizations and the comical relationship of Markus and Sigmund, with their quirky natures intertwined. A quick read as well, good for all ages. Reviewed by: Andrew S. Cohen |
