German-Norwegian Literature Festival in Oslo: "On the way to Frankfurt"

On the last weekend in April, there will be no less than 100 writers, translators, journalists and social-commentators – from Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Norway – in full swing at Litteraturhuset in Oslo.

For three consecutive days, German literature will be presented via readings, lectures, conversations, close readings, and music. In addition, lines will be drawn between social debates in Norway, Germany, Switzerland and Austria.

We are looking forward to an incredibly rich program and to having German journalists at the festival!
