You Are So Bright

“You Are So Bright” — a profound psychological novel, an engaging multi-faceted narrative about the dark corners of another's soul. About what we cannot see, even when the drama unfolds literally before our eyes. Jørgen and Vibeke live in a small coastal settlement, and the neighboring house is vacant; its former owners have divorced, and the realtor brings strange clients for viewings. When a family of their peers with a charming father, a witty joker, and a doctor, always ready to help, finally moves into the house behind the hedge, Jørgen and Vibeke do not hide their joy. They quickly become good friends with the new neighbors. And soon the fathers go together to London for a football match. But there, Jørgen suddenly witnesses something inexplicable, about which it is awkward to ask. Then more follows; it turns out Vibeke suspects Steinar of duplicity. Who is he really? What lies behind his exuberant energy and captivating courtesy? Ture Renberg's works have been translated into more than twenty languages, adapted for film, and have received many awards. To the Russian reader, he is known for the novel “Charlotte Isabel Hansen”.
