(2) YA Translated by Tara Chace. Junior high student Markus (Markus and Diana) has fallen in love fifteen times in two months. His friend Sigmund volunteers to be a go-between for Markus, who's too shy to approach his latest love object. Of course this plan backfires, as do almost all of the boys' machinations. Hagerup's romp of Shakespearean comedic complexity is balanced by a healthy dose of slapstick.
