THE MAYOR OSLO

Norwegian title: Ordføreren i Oslo

The Mayor of Oslo continues where the critically acclaimed Lofotveggen left off. The main character is being hounded by the Unemployment Office. He still needs a job. We find him on a job-seekers course, at the café, on a trip to Australia, at football training with his son, back to his mother's sudden death, the break-up and arguments with his father. The Major of Oslo is a dark, funny, desperate and original novel.
