My Men is her breakthrough novel and is being published in 12 languages.
'This fascinating, off-kilter novel about a female serial killer is an unexpectedly thrilling read' - Karl Ove Knausgard 'One of the best young authors we have... Kielland makes Brynhild tragic rather than cold-blooded' - Morgenbladet 'Gripping, unique, and amazingly well-written' - Vart Land 'Unusual and extraordinary' - Klassekampen 'What this rich and poignant novel does is try to get as deep as possible to the core of a person who struggles with what she is doing to the world and to herself. My Men is a literary achievement of the highest order' - De Standaard, 5 stars
