Description
Emily Forever is a poignant and hard-hitting novel about poverty, social inequality, and class contempt in Norway. At 19 years old, Emily is single, pregnant, and struggling to make ends meet.
As she navigates her difficult circumstances, Emily's life becomes the subject of observation by those around her - including her neighbour, who wonders if it's normal to be so infatuated with someone they've never spoken to. Meanwhile, Emily's boss at the supermarket may have feelings for her too, if only she'd notice.
This achingly original book is a deeply empathetic and humorous exploration of how a girl like Emily is seen from the outside, by those who think they know who she is and how her life is supposed to pan out. A novel of unyielding solidarity and smoldering social dissent, Emily Forever shines as a powerful portrayal of class and resilience.
