BookTalks: Einar Lövdahl
Experience Icelandic Einar Lövdahl, the author behind the novel 'Gennemtræk' at BookTalks on Tuesday 22 September.
Gennemtræk tells the story of Askur, a young man who on his way to the airport to pick up his mother, whom he has not seen in years, decides to turn around and flee. Instead, Askur ends up hitchhiking through Iceland on a journey that evokes memories of his childhood, his parents' divorce and the break-up with his first love. A journey that makes him reflect on the relationships in his life and the guilt and shame he carries around.
Gennemtræk is Einar Lövdahl's debut novel - you can experience him in a conversation about his novel with the author and presenter, Noa Kjærsgaard Hansen.
After the conversation, which lasts about an hour, we invite you to join us for social dining in our canteen for DKK 50, where you can stay and let both the conversation and the fun continue.
