Range

'A rebellious celebration of the singularity, and mystery of humankind. We need more fiction like Nors's' CHARLOTTE WOOD, NEW YORK TIMES From the International Booker Prize-shortlisted author of Mirror, Shoulder, Signal. Celebrated professor of astrophysics, Gunn Haven, has often found people stranger and more frightening than space. Back in the rural landscape of her childhood, she sets out with a thermos of coffee in her rucksack and a telescope trained on the night sky, to study celestial bodies, only to find herself pulled back into earthly lives. Glowing orbs drift down her garden path, revealing themselves as inquisitive neighbours. Her phone buzzes not with satellite signals, but with messages from her much-missed young protégée. And then there is the Gable Woman: a local adversary, enraged after catching Gunn on private property, whose determination to settle the score grows more menacing by the day. Atmospheric and intellectually expansive, Range explores the inexorable forces that at once draw us towards one another, and send us spinning away. PRAISE FOR DORTHE NORS: 'Nors' writing creeps up on you, and then overwhelms with its emotional power. She is a master' CHRIS KRAUS 'Reading Nors's work, one is reminded of the thrills and dangers of living' YIYUN LI 'A singular prose stylist. . . she is such a great companion, honest and curious and surprising' MAX PORTER 'It's a joy to be in the hands of a writer as funny and playful with form as Dorthe Nors' LAUREN GROFF 'A writer of moments - quiet, raw portraits of existential meditation' THE PARIS REVIEW 'A brilliant novel that is as intellectually vast as it is deeply rooted in the everyday experience of being human'KIRKUS
