One of Us: The Story of Anders Breivik and the Massacre in Norway

"Journalist Asne Seierstad’s recounting of the 2011 massacre in Norway, in which an ultra-right-wing terrorist killed 77 people, most of them teenagers, is unimaginably difficult to read. But it’s worth it: Her writing, translated into English by Sarah Death, is both straightforward and compassionate. One of Us is a masterpiece of journalism, a deeply painful chronicle of an inexplicable and horrifying attack that we’ll very likely never understand."
