Overview Panikk!
Panic in the streets of Lillehammer. Panic on Holberg Square in Oslo. Panic in all of Sogn og Fjordane. Panic with a case of cherry beer in the belly. Panic from the ambulance helicopter in the sky. Panic from the forces of marketing. Panic from the worms in the ground. Panic from seven billion other people. Panic and a sudden wish. A finger on the pulse. A hand around fat and bones. An one single question: Can you ever be safe again? Can you write a poem to care for the poet? That cares for her self? And yes, Kjersti Wøien Håland sometimes panics.

Author Kjersti Wøien Håland

Kjersti Wøien Håland (1988–) comes from Høyanger in Sogn og Fjordane and now lives in Oslo. She debuted in 2013 with Kjersti is a fictitious person, best wishes Kjersti (Kjersti er ein fiktiv person, helsing Kjersti); a poetry collection about being young, about being watched by and watching others, about cherry-patterned bedclothes and dancing beside your window. It was a witty and bitter debut followed by a frightening and penetrating novel Judgement Day (Dommedøgn) about many lives being threatened by something bigger. She has since written the poetry collection Panic! (Panikk!).
