Interpretation In Favor Of Books Troll: A Love Story

Everyone has their rough nights, but things have clearly taken a turn for the surreal when Angel, a young photographer, finds a group of drunken teenagers in the courtyard of his apartment building, taunting a young troll. Trolls are known in Scandinavian mythology as wild beasts like the werewolf, but this troll is just a small, wounded creature. Angel decides to offer it a safe haven for the night. In the morning Angel thinks he dreamed it all. But he finds the troll alive, well, and drinking from his toilet. What does one do with a troll in the city?

Angel begins researching frantically. Angel searches the Internet, folklore, nature journals, and newspaper clippings, but his research doesn't tell him that trolls exude pheromones that have a profound aphrodisiac effect on all those around him. As Angel's life changes beyond recognition, it becomes clear that the troll is familiar with the man's most forbidden feelings, and that it may take him across lines he never thought he'd cross. A novel of sparkling originality, Troll is a wry, peculiar, and beguiling story of nature and man's relationship to wild things, and of the dark power of the wildness in ourselves.

Judge Out Of Books Troll: A Love Story

I didn't hate the book but I did hate a lot about it. I dislike in general when books are written from many different points of view, and this one seemed particularly hard to follow because of it. Characters are referred to by several different names so I cant even keep track of whose point of view it was in relation to what they've been a part of in the past. Plus I got a sick feeling that the only reason the author made the main character, Angel, gay, was to make the leap to

Flat characters, nonsensical world building, and no plot. I don't know why a writer would center a book around a man discovering and falling in lust with a mythical creature, but not actually have any fantasy or wonder in the story at all. Plus, the characters and much of the writing felt mean spirited.

Well. I must tell you. Two things broke this book to crap for me. Although it was generally rather boring, and I skipped all the alternating chapter of Troll lore that were just pointless (despite my love of mythology), and the ludicrous structure that switched so quickly from one character POV to another (in chapters as brief as a paragraph that communicate such deep transitions as I swung my fist at him. His fist hit me in the cheek.) that they pick up immediately where the other character

This is probably one of the most quirky books I have read. A story about a gay photographer, a troll, Finish legends about mythical creatures, lust and much more. I liked the way it was written. Again, a very strange book and I could not put it down as I wanted to know the end.

I don't think this book is homophobic. I think the author just hates her characters. It is the kind of literary style (not the somewhat whimsical story I was hoping for, given the title) where likable characters aren't considered necessary (though it would help if they had some dimensions).The main character Angel is, I'm going with, a complete asshole. The idea of bringing a Troll--which in this world is a wild animal--into his home is bad enough--though that could just be idiocy. But the main

Really a 3.5, a quite interesting take on trollss, originating in Finnish myth.A young photographer finds a baby troll dying by the garbage dumpster, and decides to take it in.....but trolls have legends all their own, and none of them are about domestication.....

Plot: Climate change is pushing trolls, once the stuff of folk tales, into urban Finland. A photographer finds a baby troll being abused by youths, takes it home and falls in love with it... Ensue drama. The blurring between human and non-human is spooky and Im not actually wholly sure trolls are fictional anymore 😂 Sinisalo raises really interesting questions of climate induced migration and what it means to be a citizen of the world; were experiencing the sixth great extinction now, what
