Maybe there’s a world where grown men can wear bandanas and skinny jeans and like Gabrielle and be fine, but it’s not Isak’s. In Isak’s world men wear suits and tame their hair and listen to hip hop, or rock, or classical music – he’s pretty sure those are the only options – and it’s comfortable, and Isak knows how it works.
It’s a good time to be Isak Valtersen. The up-and-coming Norwegian authority on matters of freedom of press, several Supreme Court wins already on his resume - and still barely thirty. He’s carved out a place in the world that he never thought he’d reach, but sometimes that place just feels a little too small and rigid.
Enter Even.
