"... such a rush of emotion is a testament to Malmquist’s
extraordinary skill. ... 'In Every Moment We Are Still Alive' is a
tremendous feat of emotional and artistic discipline. ... a
triumph"—New York Times Book Review
"Beautiful… arresting ... A deeply personal account ... As more
books are published, we increasingly seek out those writers who
promise to give us something more than mere fiction. We want books
made out of lives… The value of Malmquist’s book is precisely that
it retains a trace of true human presence — carefully preserved by
the author.” —THE GUARDIAN
Most Anticipated Book of 2018 — THE MILLIONS
"[A] heady debut novel... moving...(a) beautiful, raw meditation on
earth-shattering personal loss." —PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“It is bound to invite comparison to Karl Ove Knausgaard’s My
Struggle… Perhaps more so than Knausgaard, Malmquist demonstrates
over lengthy passages that he can relay life in an intense,
heightened state. The result is exhilarating.” —FINANCIAL
TIMES
“Kafkaesque… remarkably credible.” —BOOKLIST
"By turns raw, unsettled, and touching, Malmquist's book is an
extended meditation on what it means to love and to mourn. A deeply
emotional and affecting novel." —KIRKUS REVIEWS
"A unique form... infused with deep urgency. A great stylist,
Malmquist’s immersive prose perfectly limns the demands of living
within the chiaroscuro of deep grief."—Forword Reviews
