Leopard VI - The Norwegian Feeling for Real by H Bache-Wiig
This is a collection of the most exciting and the most interesting short fiction being produced now and over the past four decades by Norwegian writers. The editors - a celebrated critic and academic, a distinguished publisher, and a renowned author - have made their selection to mark the centenary of Norway's secession from Sweden, a milestone that will be the occasion for extensive festivities and almost year-long cultural and diplomatic activity throughout 2005. The focus of the authors is, predictably and as the title of the anthology implies, in the real and raw concerns of contemporary life. The range of these stories, not a few by writers familiar to readers in English, is testament to the vigour and depth of Norway's literary genius.
JAN KJARSTAD, born in 1963, has written a string of novels, short stories and essays. His books are translated into several languages and he has received a number of literary prizes. BIRGIT BJERCK, born in 1947, is editor-in-chief at the Norwegian publishing house Pax. She mainly works on translated fiction. HARALD BACHE-WIIG is a distinguished scholar and critic.
