Men Falling is a suspenseful novel about power, truth and the fine line between justice and revenge. Blending psychological intrigue, MeToo revelations, and crime elements, it pulls the reader into a world where no one are really who they seem.

[Men Falling is] a novel that satirises the ‘culture man’ and literary institutions, complicating the Manichaeism of crime fiction. It's crime fiction for women who have studied literature. … [The book] is an enjoyable depiction of a dusty, romanticised environment and an industry that ultimately answers to the bottom line, and where everyone is governed by recognition, love, and money. If there's a moral here, it might be this: The freelancer is always an easy target.

First and foremost, this is an exuberant, Sex and the City-esque story about a woman who wants to freeze her eggs and stop messing around, but who still usually gets drunk. … It is equally a cheerful mockery of the media industry and how publishers disregard ethical objections in their desperate quest to launch the most scandalous celebrity books.

... [the novel can] undoubtedly add insight into how complex they are, the stories of the women who are victims of sexual abuse, how much belief and doubt and self-loathing they can experience along the way, with partly foggy memories of what was done to them. In this way, the novel is good, as it never simplifies or trivialises, rather it problematises, while it is takes meetoo completely seriously.
