Rage in Sørfjorden

Leander Djønne’s debut novel Oskespiralen (The Ash Spiral) takes place up a fjord among steep mountains. In an archaic time with mankind in a close physical relationship with nature, we meet a family torn with violence and rage.

The main figure, Halvard Bergstø, in Lars Ove Seljestad’s novel Eitranes has experiences from the same landscape, but in a quite different culture. Eitranes is the name of a settle­ment, but the curse of Eitranes is one of Bergstø’s feelings when he comes back to the industrial town where he grew up. Eitranes also means furious in Norwegian. The authors meet Jan H. Landro for a conversation.

The event will be in Norwegian.
