Voices from the North: New Writing from Norway

By Vigdis Ofte

Stavanger in Norway, one of the world's three leading oil cities, has been chosen as a European Capital of Culture for 2008. Seven prize-winning writers, all with a connection to the region, showcase their work, both prose fiction and poetry, in this celebratory anthology. Exciting and innovative, these young writers use images of life and death, the past and the future, of Norway and abroad, of the poetic and the everyday, to illuminate our current lives and issue warnings about the future. "An amazing showcase of modern-day literary talent from Norway." The Midwest Book Review
