Reviews

"The gratifying ending is hopeful. [Touch] adds up to an affecting story about the sway one's past can hold on the present." -- Publishers Weekly"Olafsson's treatment of the vast cultural chasm between Icelander Kristófer, and Miko...brings suspense and heartache to the reader." -- Library Journal"Delicate, absorbing...Touch is weighted with questions about love, memory, and intergenerational trauma--reaching a denouement as satisfying as it is moving." -- Vogue"Olafsson is writing at the top of his game here -- any reader with a taste for novels that gently explore the internal world will find much to love in this remarkable book." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune
