Linn Strømsborg DAMN, DAMN, DAMN

Britt is angry. She’s angry because she isn’t living a different life. And she’s angry because she doesn’t want to live a different life. She’s just yelled at her daughter, her husband and all their friends. Which deep down are really his friends. And it felt good.

Nico is on the surface the opposite of Britt. Not angry. Not worn down by commitments. Not established. No family. Despite this she is loving Britt’s anger.

Damn, Damn, Damn is about the expectations a woman can allow herself to have for life, and the limitations for the same thing which are still deeply interwoven into our culture. Being angry is much overdue. So is tearing things down. And building new things.

Howling With Wolves

Aslaug has a more or less meaningful job as a communications manager in the idealistic organisation Future with Vision. Nonetheless her job fills her with a constantly increasing lack of desire and irritation – to the extent that the highlight of her week is cake for lunch every Wednesday. The displeasure becomes acute when the hundred percent politically correct Karen-Britt is hired and assigned an office space to the left of Aslaug in the open office landscape. A mental bomb is about to go off – in the very near future.

Howling with Wolves is a novel which makes fun of both city and village, which surely is allowed.
