Yoko Ono is a charlatan

Norwegian title: Yoko Ono er en sjarlatan

In a basement apartment, in the house of the widow Annelore Frimann-Clausen in Grefsen, Elling is blogging. "Why start blogging - now?" he asks himself. "Because life is short, and I have already started moving into the age of dust."

Elling writes about anything that falls into mind; his favorite foods from when he was growing up, about where on earth people come from, things from the news and memories of his mother. He writes about gardening, bacon and sauce, about life in the small basement apartment. But he also has stron opinions about a lot of things. Amongst others Yoko Ono.

Yoko Ono is a Charlatan is a collection of texts written in the years between 2013 and 2020. Some of the texts has been a part of Ambjørnsen´s successful tours. Others have been published on the Facebook-page Elling-nytt and on the Cappelen Damm Blog.
