Per Petterson's I Refuse is the work of an internationally acclaimed novelist at the height of his powers. In the same spare but evocative style that made readers fall in love with Out Stealing Horses, Petterson weaves a tale of two men whose accidental meeting one morning churns up a fateful moment from their boyhood thirty-five years before.

Review:
- "Illuminated by a clear and insightful knowledge of what it means to be human... Petterson is really a masterful depictor of contemporary life. His prose is precise, simple, and yet so magically different that it constantly offers a new insight... Lucky is the reader who has yet to read Petterson." --"Nordjyske, Denmark"

Praise for Per Petterson

"
"Subtly incisive . . . Clean sentence after clean sentence, Petterson conveys both the melancholy and the demi-pleasurable sensation of being fundamentally untethered." --Stacey D'Erasmo, "The New York Times Book Review
"
"Readers will find that they're in the hands of a master whose quiet, unforgettable voice leaves you yearning to hear more." --"The Boston Globe
"
"Per Petterson stands unsurpassed among contemporary writers for existential truth-telling." --"Financial Times"

- "An extraordinarily humane work... "I Refuse" will lodge in the heart and remain there." --Eileen Battersby, "Irish Times"
- "A poignant, melancholic novel about the bonds forged and broken between friends and family members." --Lucy Scholes, "Independent "
- "Relentless, often shocking, but always satisfying... telling each man's story with brutal honesty and poignantly reinforcing a sense of existential malaise." --Matthew Bremner, "Financial Times "
- "Petterson's signature technique lies in drawing the most zigzag line imaginable through narrative chronology but the effect is not of confusion, rather of a dense, layered complexity: it is the realist novel form's mimetic faithfulness to lie itself." --Neel Mukherjee, "Guardian"
