Thorvald Steen joins Winje Agency

December 7 2020

It’s a joy to welcome Thorvald Steen, and his superb body of work, to Winje Agency.

Steen’s literary career begun in 1983, he has since produced a diverse body of work spanning a variety of genres. Translated into 30 languages so far, Steen has received praise and prizes for the quality of his authorship.

His last two novels, The White Bathhouse and The Last Photograph, tell the story of complicated family relations filled with secrecy, in a striking unsentimental prose. Through the narrative, he raises critical questions regarding dignity, the value of life, and hereditary illness.
