Revue de presse :
'Compelling, disquieting and perceptive' --Adresseavisen.
'Shamelessly charming without intellectual fuss.' --Stavanger Aftenblad.
'With Doppler Erlend Loe has become Norway's most alarming writer.' --Dagens Noringsliv.
The understated, self-regarding voice of Doppler becomes rather addictive, and when one realises that the whimsicality is actually sugaring a rather bitter pill, the experience of reading the book becomes more complex than a simple enjoyment of its absurdities. And if the reader is able to cope with these absurdities not everyone will they may find themselves enjoying a darkly comic fable which makes, en passant, some astringent points about the way we live today. --The Independent
Wonderfully subversive, funny and original. --Salley Vickers, Guardian

Doppler has just lost his father. Despite the fact that he has a pregnant wife and two children, he decides to move into the woods . Here he starts a lonely and purposefully boring existence. He has never been so happy. When Doppler kills a she-elk for meat he can't feel guilty about it, but he does feel a bit guilty about the calf she left behind. When the baby elk adopts him, Doppler is tempted to knock it down as well. But the little elk is wily and escapes death, and gradually they become friends. He names the little elk Bongo. Doppler is a charming, absurd and subversive novel with serious undertones and criticism of our modern consumer society.
