Jun Fosse is a distinguished Norwegian writer and playwright, winner of the 2023 Nobel Prize "for innovative plays and prose that give voice to the unspeakable," winner of the Nordic Council Prize and the theater equivalent of the Nobel Prize, the International Ibsen Prize, and a nominee for the 2020 and 2022 International Booker Prize.
"It's better for my plays when the characters' emotions are covered with a tight lid - and simmering under that lid." Asle and Alida wander the streets of Björgvin at dusk in late fall in search of a night's lodging. But nowhere are the unmarried lovers, who are about to have a child, welcome. The fjord is silvery in the dark, it's raining, and the baby is pushing in Alida's belly. They are so tired and so cold. No one needs them in this world but each other. And fate leads them down dangerous paths. An incredibly deep and poetic trilogy-parable about love, crime, music and death. "Trilogy" consists of three novels, which are considered almost the most important works of Fosse - "Without Sleep", "Dreams of Ulav" and "Evening Elm".
