After Eight by Paul Larkin – a Danish writer’s review:

April 2008
Jeg synes egentlig, at jeg har et ret godt indtryk af, hvad det er for nogle personer. I mine øjne er historierne bouillonterninger: kompakte, og meget koncentrerede. De folder sig ud til mange gange deres størrelse, når man putter dem i vand. Men de er også så koncentrerede, at jeg faktisk kun har læst 1-2 historier ad gangen. Man er mæt bagefter, men ikke kvalmende mæt. En spændende form for skriveri...

My overall view is that, in these very short stories, I get a very clear impression of what makes the characters tick. In my eyes, the stories are like stock cubes: compact, and very concentrated. Then when you put them in water, they expand to dimensions that are way beyond their original size. But they are also so concentrated, that I can actually only manage reading 1 or 2 stories at a time. One is left feeling full up afterwards, but not nauseously full. A really exciting writer’s format ...
