Thanks to the kind support of NORLA, the Norwegian Literature Abroad Foundation, I’m at the book fair in Gothenburg this week. This year’s fair is focussing on the Nordic region, and with a reported 150 Nordic authors in attendance, it promises to be a busy week. I’m looking forward to learning more about some of the Norwegian authors, particularly those with an interest in drama. On the Danish front, Suzanne Brøgger, Kim Fupz Aakeson and one of my recent favourites, Kim Leine are among the attendees.
And how could I forget to mention Pia Juul? Yesterday Pia talked about the publication of a collection of poems entitled Radioteateret or ‘Radio Theatre’. Can’t wait to read it!
