I would like to go out stealing horses

Have you ever read the book "Out Stealing Horses" by the Norwegien author Per Petterson? Well, probably not, so don't! Maybe I'm just not mature enough or something, cause this book has received a lot of recognition and I have heard that the sales are doing great also in America. Even one of my favorite-magazines has even embraced this book. Wikipedia say, and i quote:


"Time magazine's Lev Grossman named it one of the Top 10 Fiction Books of 2007, ranking it at #4, and praising it as a "page-turner"."


Norwegian or not, this book is tediously boring, I had a hard time finishing it, even though it only consist of 250 pages or so. Per Petterson never again!
