In April’s Nordic Literary Salon Online, we will present the autobiographical novel Oktoberbarn by Swedish author Linda Boström Knausgård with translator Romana Švachová. The novel describes the drastic treatment of the author’s mental illness in a poignant narrative. The online discussion with the translator is moderated by Ema C. Stašová.
You can watch the live stream on Thursday 11 April 2024 at 20.00 on the Scandinavian House Facebook page. The recording will later be made available on our YouTube channel.
In Czech.
The event is part of the Scandinavian House’s year-long project Nordic Literature in the Heart of Europe 2024, which is supported by the City of Prague and the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic.
