Jens M. Johansson’s new novel Middle Class Hero has gotten fantastic reviews on it’s release last week.
Here are what the critics are saying:
“It is not often that one reads such an entertaining and revealing novel about class differences, literature and the literary environment. … In its striking, laugh-out-loud way, Middle Class Hero broadens the understanding of both the literature field and class differences in today’s Norway.” – Anne Merethe K. Prinos, Aftenposten
“Jens M. Johansson has written an extremely humorous novel that addresses several key issues and links them together in a highly original way. … There are many ways to the political novel. But few are as entertaining as in Middle Class Hero.” – Marta Norheim, NRK
“Funny, vulnerable and a very good novel about the great emptiness that can haunt our lives.” – 5/6 – Ørjan Greiff Johnsen, Adresseavisen

“A great honour,” says Kristofer Hivju about playing police investigator Ole Vik in the crime series Sogn Murders. The TV2 series is based on Jørgen Jæger’s bestselling books, and filming started this week in Sogn.
Northern Stories increased its revenue from NOK 10.2 million to NOK 15.8 million in 2024 – and was simultaneously named a Gazelle Company by Dagens Næringsliv.
“We continue to grow in markets that remain challenging,” says founder Astrid Dalaker.
After careful consideration of several production companies, Anne Elvedal has chosen Monster to develop a TV series based on her critically acclaimed psychological thriller, You Can Call Me Jan.
Anne Elvedal’s gripping psychological thriller You Can Call Me Jan has earned its place on both Adresseavisa’s and NRK’s prestigious lists of the best books of the year.
