Hagerup, Hilde: Bølgebiter

A beautifully recounted story of a friendship which turns from love and trust to hate and jealousy. Anna is suddenly let down by her best friend. Emma, pretty and outgoing, decides that she would rather be together with the most sought-after boys in school than with Anna, with her mousy hair and brace. Deeply wounded and feeling herself of no account, Anna changes her personality.

Praise for Bølgebiter:

"It is the way the language is used, the fragmentary ideas, the brief glimpses into the past and the sudden digressions that make this novel something quite out of the ordinary."
