In the Nordic Literary Salon online in March, we will introduce the literary debut Back in the Day of young Norwegian author, Oliver Lovrenski, along with translator Václav Křeněk. The raw generational novel speaks on the immigrant experience and on the problems of the young Norwegian generation. The story, which is about four friends whose home is the street, and which is full of colourful language, got nominated for the prestigious Norwegian literary prize, Brageprisen.
You can watch the live stream on Thursday 13. March 2025 from 20:00 on the Scandinavian House Facebook page. The recording will later be made available on our YouTube Channel.
