Aslak Nore’s Wolfsangel (Piège à loup, Le bruit du monde, tr. Céline Romand-Monnier) was discussed yesterday on Le Masque et la Plume, a French cultural institution that attracts millions of listeners.
“Piège à loup” (Ulvefellen) came out in French earlier this month and “Felsengrund” (Ingen skal drukne), the second book in Aslak’s best-selling Falck Trilogy, just launched in Germany.
The Heirs of the Arctic was published in France by Le bruit du monde last week (Les héritiers de l’Arctique, tr. Loup-Maëlle Besançon), and the first reviews are outstanding.
