Northern Stories continues to grow!
Northern Stories increased its revenue from 8.4 to 10.2 million Norwegian kroner last year. “We are very pleased to perform so well in a tough market,” says Astrid Dalaker.
Each spring and fall, NORLA chooses a selection of Norwegian books of current interest for book fairs and literary events.
We’re thrilled that TWO of our authors have been selected to the list for Spring 2022: Therese Tungen’s “TURN AROUND” and Thomas Reinertsen Berg’s “TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH”
TURN AROUND is a heartbreaking book written by a mother trying to find her way through the chaos after her son died, and an attempt to write about who Edvin really was.
Here’s a video of Therese presenting the book.
TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH: A HISTORY OF SPICES follows the strands of spices back to earth’s ancient history, explaining why the unique plants grow exactly where they do and what is so special about them. The book has already sold to Ediciones Godot (World Spanish) and ZNAK (Poland)!
Here’s a video of Thomas presenting the book.
