About the project
In 2019, Norway was Guest of Honour at the Frankfurter Buchmesse. As Guest of Honour Norway organised an extensive literary and cultural programme throughout 2019. Both in the German speaking area as well as internationally and in Norway. The project culminated at the Frankfurter Buchmesse in October 2019.
The motto for the project was ‘The Dream We Carry’. It derives from a poem by Olav H. Hauge. It expresses the wish we have that Norwegian literature and arts will open doors to and hearts of an international audience.
