Synopsis
The characters in this pearl of a book are animals with recognisable human traits and feelings and Bárður Oskarsson lets them juggle some of life’s ethical and existential question without offering any easy answers. With his subtle humour, we meet the rabbit, Bob, who timidly wonders what might be on the other side of the tree. His friend, Hilbert, claims he has not only been there many times, he has in fact seen the whole world, because he can fly. Who can we trust, what is on the other side of the hill, should we go see for ourselves?
Reviews
"Genious read-aloud with philosophical after taste " – (Jyllandposten)
"He shaves us down to the bare essentials and leaves us with the question: 'What is behind that tree?'" – (5 hearts in Politiken)
