Those of you who follow my work know about my client, the Norwegian writer Pål H. Christiansen. In 2002 he had published his novel “Drømmer om storhet” about the desperate writer Hobo Highbrow who first loses his job, then thinks he has lost his girlfriend and finally loses grip on reality. The only orientation remaining in his life is his admiration for the Norwegian band a-ha, especially their composer and guitarist Paul Waaktaar-Savoy.
Pål H. Christiansen’s novel has been published in print in German and in English translation so far. We’re also publishing a French and an Italian fan (!) translation bit by bit on his fanblog at the moment.
And now we have written a supplement to the novel together called “Hobo’s Guide to Oslo” – a free eBook that can be downloaded on Pål H. Christiansen’s website. So when you come to Oslo next time, make sure you have this little companion and the novel with you!
