Adam Rapp

Adam Rapp says that when he was working on his chilling, compulsively readable young adult novel 33 SNOWFISH, he was haunted by several questions. Among them: "When we have nowhere to go, who do we turn to? Why are we sometimes drawn to those who are deeply troubled? How far do we have to run before we find new possibilities?"

At once harrowing and hypnotic, 33 SNOWFISH--which was nominated as a Best Book for Young Adults by the American Library Association--follows three troubled young people on the run in a stolen car with a kidnapped baby in tow. With the language of the street and lyrical prose, Adam Rapp hurtles the reader into the world of lost children, a world that is not for the faint of heart. His narration captures the voices of t

Abito a Selz, in provincia di Gorizia. Crescere e vivere vicino al confine mi ha dato la possibilità di comprendere che la realtà non è risolvibile in una visione univoca. Il mondo è fatto di contrasti e sfumature, non c’è una verità unica ma tante voci diverse. Voci che possono cercare di sopraffarsi l’una contro l’altra, oppure accordarsi in un coro armonioso. Forse è anche per questo che sono affascinato dal mondo dei simboli, un argomento che studio da anni in tutte le sue sfaccettature. L’espressione simbolica è infatti una costante dell’essere umano.

Aksel Sandemose

Aksel Sandemose var en dansk-norsk forfatter som skrev et personlig preget norsk som ligger nærmest det som kalles bokmål. Han skrev altså ikke riksmål, som er det norske skriftspråk som ligger nærmest offisiell dansk, selv om han var født og oppvokst i Danmark. Han er mest kjent for romanen En flyktning krysser sitt spor, som introduserer begrepet Janteloven.

Aksel Sandemoses fødenavn var Axel Nielsen, men i 1921 endret han navn til Aksel Sandemose. Et navn med tilknytning til hans norske mors slekt. Oppveksten i byen Nykøbing på øya Mors i Limfjorden i Nord-Jylland ga stoff til en stor del av hans forfatterskap. Også hans tid som sjømann i unge år er biografisk stoff i hans bøker.

He founded the weekly Fedraheim in 1877, in which he urged reforms in many spheres including political, social, religious, agrarian, and linguistic.

His novels are profound and gripping while his essays are clear and insightful. He was never inclined to steer clear of controversy. His work tackled the issues of the day, including the relevance of religion in modern times, the conflicts between national and European identity, and the ability of the common people to actually participate in political processes and decisions.
