'Idling has climbed inside the mind of a tyrant, and it makes the blood run cold; this is also a wonderfully evocative picture of a chaotic country about to explode into war, where torrential rain makes the street look as if the surface is coming to the boil . Brilliant.' The Times
'Beautifully evocative....must-read novel'Daily Mail
'It's rare to come across such a confident debut novel... [an] exceptional, vibrant and tense piece of historical fiction.' The Lady (five star review)
'I wonder if I've ever read a debut novel as good ... as in the fiction of Marguerite Duras and Graham Greene the tension between Power and Eros is hard as steel in [this] brilliant novel.' SR Kulturnytt
This is in the James Ellroy and Mario Vargas Llosa department! Peter Fröberg Idling's political thriller is the same kind of feverish sweat-stained fiction/non-fiction ... a fully developed piece and cannot but be one of the finest literary debuts in decades, at least.' Boras Tidning
'An exquisite portrayal of complex emotion, of how people are shaped and coerced by their context. Overwhelming.'
--ArbetarbladetPeter Fröberg Idling, born in 1972, is a writer and journalist. His first book, Pol Pot's Smile (2006) was a critically acclaimed work of literary nonfiction published in eight languages. He trained as a lawyer, and was working as legal advisor to an aid organization in Cambodia when the idea for his first book came about. His long anticipated first novel is also set in Cambodia, but like the debut, blurs fact and fiction in order to tell a truly remarkable story.
