A mother and daughter travel from abroad to meet in Tokyo: they walk along the canals through the autumn evenings, escape the typhoon rains, share meals in small cafes and restaurants, and visit galleries to see some of the city's most radical modern art. All the while, they talk: about the weather, horoscopes, clothes, and objects, about family, distance, and memory. But uncertainties abound. Who is really speaking here - is it only the daughter? And what is the real reason behind this elliptical, perhaps even spectral journey? At once a careful reckoning and an elegy, Cold Enough for Snow questions whether any of us speak a common language, which dimensions can contain love, and what claim we have to truly know another's inner world. Selected from more than 1,500 entries, Cold Enough for Snow won the Novel Prize, a new, biennial award offered by Fitzcarraldo Editions, New Directions (US) and Giramondo (Australia), for any novel written in English that explores and expands the possibilities of the form.

Åtti år senere tar forfatteren Vera livet sitt. Sporene peker tilbake til forliset.

Det er en romantisk og tragisk reise langs norskekysten i både fortid og nåtid, og en fortelling der sannhet står mot familielojalitet, med konsekvenser så store at de kan føre til familiens undergang.«Heidundrende underholdning skrevet med stort litterært overskudd.» Sindre Hovdenakk, VG, Årets tre beste bøker«Aslak Nore (43) har skrevet en heidundrende krimroman. Proppet med herlige karakterer og med en handling som drar deg med fra første til siste side. Ta en enorm formue, en rystende familiehemmelighet, politisk renkespill og sterke viljer i klinsj. Legg til uskikkede arvinger, norske spesialsoldater og en dæsj løkkeskriftroman. Resultatet: Et overflødighetshorn av en krimbok, som selv ikke den mest kritiske leser kan unngå å la seg underholde av.» Sindre Hovdenakk, VG (Terningkast 6)«... du verden for en penn. En drivende god spenningsroman.» Jan Øyvind Helgesen, Nettavisen (Terningkast 6)«Fortjener et stort publikum. God roman om en families vekst og fall, og de hemmelighetene som ofte ligger begravet i fortiden.» Ørjan Greiff Johnsen, Adresseavisen (Terningkast 5)«En fiffig komponert og leseverdig krim. ... både spennende og akkurat passe lettlest. Aslak Nores fjerde spenningsroman plasserer seg midt i selve hjertet av norsk krimlitteratur.» Preben Jordal, Aftenposten«Makt og bedrag, lag på lag. Aslak Nores Havets kirkegård er først og fremst blitt en spenningsroman betegnelsen verdig.» Leif Ekle, NRK

Lektor Jensens optegnelser henvender sig til læsevante voksne.Afsnittet med den sigende titel "Upædagogiske betragtninger" er en nøgtern beretning fra det danske uddannelsessystem. Som kønsmoden person i tiden før og efter 1968 har forfatteren også noget at fortælle om kærlighedsforhold. I afsnittet "Folkeoplysning og propaganda" opregnes en stor del af velfærdsstatens problemer. De følges op af effektive løsningsforslag, som dog må antages at være for logisk indlysende til at kunne realiseres. Desuden har bogen oplysende afsnit om trosspørgsmål samt henvisninger til stor litteratur og musik.
