Into A Star is written with an immediate simplicity that it's impossible to resist. A private tragedy reminiscent of Joan Didion in The Year of Magical Thinking and Blue Nights. But Puk Qvortrup writes younger, more exposed, more from the body * Svenska Dagbladet * An unusually strong debut novel. The author writes with a clarity and purity that goes straight to the heart of her reader * Nordjyske * Overwhelming. Tough and beautiful, a brave and insistent novel * Jyllands-Posten *
