Thorvald Steen is one of Norway’s most signifcant and beloved authors. His novels raise acute issues about identity and disability, belonging and the shameful positon of the disabled, the outsiders. Steen fuses personal history with political and individual psychology in a deeply respectful way, with dignity and humour. Enjoy a glimpse of the portrait!
