- 5.0 out of 5 starsVerified PurchaseOne of the best Copenhagen novels everReviewed in the United States on February 21, 2009One of my friends told me about the book and added "It seems as if the main character has a slight alcohol problem ..." which of course is true in this fantastic Odyssé through the cafés, bars and restaurants of Copenhagen and Dublin.

See moreOne of my friends told me about the book and added "It seems as if the main character has a slight alcohol problem ..." which of course is true in this fantastic Odyssé through the cafés, bars and restaurants of Copenhagen and Dublin. But it's also a tremendous romance - a slowly and reluctantly growing love story between two adult people with a lot of hidden scars on their souls, and a love story about the city of Copenhagen and the literatures of Denmark, Ireland and the western world. "Kerrigan's Copenhagen" might be the best Copenhagen novel since Tom Kristensens "Havoc" from 1930, and several of its reviewers has compared Kennedy with James Joyce. It's the first volume of Thomas Kennedy's "Copenhagen Quartet" and right now I'm reading "Greene's summer", one of the sequels. I'm not disappointed!

Kennedy gives you all you need to know about Copenhagen -- all those wonderful drinking establishments! And yes, it's a love story...love of words, women, beer, and a great city. It's an honest, many times touching story of an aging writer and all his loves.

There were times where I liked it a lot and other times where the philsophic meanderings became tedious. The relationship between the two characters seemed untenable. Why would this woman put up with that jerk. Despite the past misfortunes in his life he should have gotten a life long before the end of the book.

- 2.0 out of 5 starsVerified PurchaseBooze and Danish History - who cares?Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2013Although I am no prude when it comes to alcohol consumption, I found this book to be one which only a hard core drinker who is also fascinated by the historic sites of Copenhagen could truly enjoy. It was a struggle for this reader to finish it..
- 1.0 out of 5 starsVerified PurchaseFor lovers of Copenhagen with a tolerance for boredomReviewed in the United States on March 27, 2015I love Copenhagen, too but found this book's first one or two chapters interesting and a good read. After that I got bored and stopped reading the book.

Vagn Fentz5.0 out of 5 starsVerified PurchaseRecommended, also for non-visitors.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 17, 2016Fascinating for several reasons: the story or plot as such, the generally correct presentation of Coipenhagen and of Danish culture and history. Mr. Kennedy has an even more thorugh knowledge of the pubs than I, who grew up there in the 30-60'es.- jic4.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchasebut what a beautiful story.

Wonderful Copenhagen and its people pinned on a needle.
