Leave of Absence

Since making his debut as a writer in 1995 with his novel Glasskår (which won him two important prizes for first novels), Harald Rosenløw Eeg has made a name for himself as an upbeat and unconventional author of outstanding literary daring. His writing is highly distinctive and has acquired a cadence that is all his own. In his quest for innovative metaphors and word combinations he challenges his readers, breaks established bounds and blazes new trails in the writing of books for young adults. He has subsequently written eight more books for young adults, two of them have won the Brage Prize, Vrengt and Yahtzee and one novel for adult readers Karmakongen.
Harald Rosenløw Eeg is also a musician and has a Master’s degree in the history of religion.
