"Det här är dikt som vet att vara dikt och som ändå träffar rakt i magen."

Sveriges Radio

”Mördarleken påminner mig om hur Trotzig beskrev konstens uppgift som att ta emot och förmedla bilder från sin samtids kollektiva undermedvetna. Och här får vi läsa en poet som faktiskt satt sig ner och tagit ett djupt andetag för att låta sina ord bli en ventil för vårt kaos – på det fantasifulla, mångtydiga och samtidigt arketypiska sätt som hör sagor och drömbilder till."

SvD

Det börjar med ett mord, sedan fördelas rollerna: detektiven, reportern, de anhöriga, vittnet, den misstänkte, grannen, läkaren och offret. Åtta karaktärer som i 8 x 8 dikter försöker begripliggöra det som har hänt. Följer manuskriptet nyhetsrapporteringens logik, eller pusseldeckarens? Den heliga skriftens eller dataspelets?

Mördarleken utspelar sig i det grymma och absurda samhälle där barn dödar andra barn. Det är en bok om sanning och lögn, om det verkliga och det overkliga i myterna, juridiken, spelen, sorgen och döden. Det är poesi på lek och allvar.
