Meet the Mikkola sisters: Ina, Evelyn, and Anastasia. Their mother is a Tunisian saleswoman, their father a mysterious Swede who left them when they were young. Ina is tall, serious, a compulsive organizer. Evelyn is dreamy, magnetic, a smooth talker. And Anastasia is moody, chaotic, a shape-shifting presence, quick to anger.
Ina meets her future husband when she's dragged to a New Year's party by her sisters, only to suffer the ultimate betrayal. Evelyn drifts through life before embarking on a wild career as an actress. And Anastasia runs off to Tunisia, where she falls in love with a woman who, years later, will transform her life.
Following the sisters from afar is Jonas, the son of a Swedish mother and a Tunisian father. Over the course of three decades, his life intersects with the sisters, from a chance encounter in Tunis to the scene of a fighter jet crash in Stockholm. When Evelyn disappears on a trip to New York, Jonas manages to track her down - and helps her to break the curse that has been looming over the Mikkolas for decades. In the process, a shocking revelation changes everything about who they think they are.
Narrated in six parts, each spanning a period ranging from a year to a day to a single minute, The Sisters is a big, vivid family saga of the highest order - an addictively entertaining tour de force.©2025 Jonas Hassen Khemiri
批評家のレビュー
A quilt in the winter, a fireplace of embers, a singing kettle, a blazing forest, a steaming bath, a controlled burn - what you hold in your hands generates every kind of heat. There is violence, and some of it burns, but its most consistent and miraculous energy - the energy radiating beneath every sentence of every page - is a kind of geothermal tenderness. Jonas Hassen Khemiri's The Sisters moves generation to generation, neighbour to neighbour, skin to skin, pulse to pulse. If you welcome this novel into your mind, it will warm and transform you (Tess Gunty, Waterstones Debut Fiction Prize-winning author of The Rabbit Hutch)
I try to avoid recommending too many novels whose length could rival a dictionary's. But I've been thinking about The Sisters ever since I finished it, and now that it's out I hope you linger over it, too. (Joumana Khatib)
The Sisters is a novel of unsurpassed tenderness. It is about the power of stories, to make and break and finally heal us. Jonas Hassen Khemiri is a born storyteller, of rare and astonishing gifts. Every character - every sentence - is startlingly, indubitably alive (Katie Kitamura, author of Intimacies)
The Sisters made such an impression on me that I started dreaming about Ina, Evelyn and Anastasia and the brilliant structure of this capacious, moving novel. It will remain with me for a long time (Lara Haworth, author of Monumenta)
The Sisters is a thoroughly fascinating story about sibling rivalry, loyalty, and love, one that is about the microcosm of the family as much as it is about the bigger world. Jonas Hassen Khemiri is the very rare combination of a deep intellectual and a true storyteller, as smart as he is entertaining. He is an important voice, a curious mind, and a generous teacher to all of us who have tried to imitate him (Fredrik Backman, author of A Man Called Ove)
The Sisters is a moving appraisal of family, language, and the spiritual developments that accrue over a life. Jonas Hassen Khemiri ushers you through those developments with humanity and wit and illuminates complex familial intimacies with utter clarity (Raven Leilani, author of Luster)
The Sisters is a superb novel about the pangs and longings of sibling love, about being Arab in Sweden and Swedish in Tunisia, about the strange stories that sustain us and the long rush of time. Captivating and so full of life - one of those books you live inside and miss when it's over (Isabella Hammad, author of Enter Ghost)
