Program
NORLA and our project partners have the pleasure of presenting a series of prominent Norwegian literary authors and illustrators who together reflect the broad variety of Norwegian literature.
The program stretches over 13 days and fills many stages. Each day, a Norwegian author and their literary works are put in focus. Many of the authors who participate in the literary program are newly published by Egyptian or other Arabic publishers.
