Beatles
Author: Lars Saabye Christensen
language: en
Publisher: Hachette UK
Release Date: 2009-06-25
'"Beatles" is the story of Kim Karlsen and his three buddies, Gunnar, Ola and Seb - and, yes, they occasionally like to think of themselves as the Fab Four. They were born in 1951, and the story starts with the first wave of Beatlemania in Norway, in the spring of 1965. Each chapter tales a different Beatles song (or, near the end, post-Beatles solo songs) as its title and theme - all the way through the winter of 1972. There's drinking (lots of it), football, some love-fumblings (Kim has two girlfriends that he has to semi-juggle) and the sort of minor adventures that are part of growing up. "Beatles" is a well-written account of a generation, and of growing up in a specific time. It feels very real' - "The Complete Review".
Muttra og meg
Anne B. Ragde skriver klokt og humoristisk om forfatterlivet, om oppvekst og familie, om vannskrekk, om foreldre og barn og om å dra på hundeutstilling i Sundsvall med telt og trillebag og nesten dø av det. Og ikke minst, om å dra på tur til Oman med Muttra. Da tar vi blant annet del i en minneverdig busstur til Muscat hvor denne replikkvekslingen finner sted når Anne og Muttra entrer bussen for det som skal vise seg å bli en meget lang tur. – Your mother very ... good, sa han som viste seg å være sjåføren vår og ventet på at bussen skulle bli full nok til at det ville lønne seg å kjøre. – No arabic mother EVER go to this ... this ... – Toilet? sa jeg. – Yes! Toilet! No arabic mother go there. EVER!
Sovietistan
"A mesmerising trip across Central Asia . . . A fascinating travelogue" Financial Times SHORTLISTED FOR EDWARD STANFORD/LONELY PLANET DEBUT TRAVEL WRITER OF THE YEAR 2020 Erika Fatland takes the reader on a journey that is unknown to even the most seasoned globetrotter. The five former Soviet Republics' Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan all became independent when the Soviet Union fell apart in 1991. How have these countries developed since then? In the Kyrgyzstani villages Erika Fatland meets victims of the widely known tradition of bride snatching; she visits the huge and desolate Polygon in Kazakhstan where the Soviet Union tested explosions of nuclear bombs; she meets Chinese shrimp gatherers on the banks of the dried out Aral Sea and she witnesses the fall of a dictator. She travels incognito through Turkmenistan, a country that is closed to journalists. She meets exhausted human rights activists in Kazakhstan, survivors from the massacre in Osh in 2010, German Menonites that found paradise on the Kyrgyzstani plains 200 years ago. During her travels, she observes how ancient customs clash with gas production and she witnesses the underlying conflicts between ethnic Russians and the majority in a country that is slowly building its future in Nationalist colours. In these countries, that used to be the furthest border of the Soviet Union, life follows another pace of time. Amidst the treasures of Samarkand and the bleakness of Soviet architecture, Erika Fatland moves with her openness towards the people and the landscapes around her. A rare and unforgettable travelogue.
