Reviews
Witty and candid, Love in Case of Emergency deftly examines the world of relationships, and the challenges, ambitions and failures of the women who take part in them., German novelist and award-winning short story author Krien (Someday We'll Tell Each Other Everything) has produced a sensitive, intricate study of the connected stories of her characters, who seek a shield against the deep loneliness caused by unwanted solitude or by being with the wrong person. Readers will find something relatable in one or more of the lives of these women., Krien's writing (translated excellently by Jamie Bulloch) is sparse and precise...there is [a] hopeful slant to the novel's concern with transition -- encapsulated by the migration of swifts through each chapter., "Fans of Sarah Dunn, Elisabeth Egan, and Isabel Gillies will relate to the multifaceted lives of Krien's characters, brilliantly rendered in her vivid voice." -- Booklist "German novelist and award-winning short story author Krien (Someday We'll Tell Each Other Everything) has produced a sensitive, intricate study of the connected stories of her characters, who seek a shield against the deep loneliness caused by unwanted solitude or by being with the wrong person. Readers will find something relatable in one or more of the lives of these women." -- Library Journal "Witty and candid, Love in Case of Emergency deftly examines the world of relationships, and the challenges, ambitions and failures of the women who take part in them." -- Shelf Awareness "[Love in Case of Emergency] is hopeful but never sentimental about how love might be parsed, and Krien is unfailingly impressive in her depiction of the lives of these five very different women." -- Irish Times In spite of its serious subject, Love in Case of Emergency is a novel that will make your heart jump for joy. -- Gérard Otremba, Sounds and Books While reading the book the women become confidants and reveal themselves thereby remaining genuine, but most of all believable. Maybe that is the artistry, the literary concept of Daniela Krien, the familiar truthfulness of her characters, their touching intimacy. -- Silke Müller, Stern, Hamburg This is the one book that I would like to hand to everyone who wants to know something about contemporary German literature, the country and its people. -- Denis Scheck, WDR, Cologne "This exquisite portrait of five middle-class women's lives is utterly captivating... A beautifully written masterclass in human frailty." -- Women and Home "Krien's writing (translated excellently by Jamie Bulloch) is sparse and precise...there is [a] hopeful slant to the novel's concern with transition -- encapsulated by the migration of swifts through each chapter." -- Telegraph (UK) "Written in unsentimental, affecting prose, this is an intelligent study of female desire, ambition, and frailty." -- The Observer (London), Written in unsentimental, affecting prose, this is an intelligent study of female desire, ambition, and frailty., [Love in Case of Emergency] is hopeful but never sentimental about how love might be parsed, and Krien is unfailingly impressive in her depiction of the lives of these five very different women., In spite of its serious subject, Love in Case of Emergency is a novel that will make your heart jump for joy.
