Reviews Til mote

"Boka holder god Langeland-standard. (...) Og så er boka helt uten sidestykke lekker"

 
Emil Otto Syvertsen, Fædrelandsvennen

Gåtta banen! 04.09.2023

"Motehistorie og europeisk historie krysser sine spor i Morten Langelands oppegående reisedikt. (...) Jeg tenker at Morten Langeland kombinerer historisk bevissthet med raffinert samtidsforståelse. Og humør. (...) Men hovedgrunnen til å oppsøke denne diktsamlingen ligger i de til tider spektakulært gode setningene. De er det mange av her, altså. (...) Les Langeland og bli glad. Du kommer langt med denne boken på din neste togreise i Europa."

Knut Hoem, NRK.no

"Til mote er en øm, merksnodig, kvikk og lurendreiersk bok, hvor Langelands litterære ledighet når sitt høydepunkt."

Thula Kopreitan, Bokmagasinet, Klassekampen
