Møllergata 19

Vegard Sæther

During the Second World War, almost 40,000 Norwegians personally experienced internment in Nazi prisons, prisoner-of-war camps and concentration camps. They were arrested on suspicion of resistance-related activities, for their political and religious beliefs, for deviant sexual orientation, or for being Jewish or Roma. Many became political prisoners for an indefinite period – left to German justice and a fate no longer in their control. Almost 7,000 people were put in the Germans’ main political prison at Møllergata 19. Vegard Sæther sheds light on their story from a broad perspective – the road to imprisonment, torture and their subsequent fate. Over the course of five difficult years, number 19 became an important symbol of the Norwegian resistance movement. The book also looks closely at the captors. Who were they?

Taiwan

Kristoffer Rønneberg

Taiwan takes the reader into the heart of disputed Taiwan - a country caught between the ambitions of superpowers, struggling for democratic values. China stands on the threshold of a possible invasion. The US is ready with promises of defence. Taiwan not only explores the potentially catastrophic consequences of military confrontation in Asia, but also poses an existential question: What is the future of democracy? Kristoffer Rønneberg dives into Taiwan’s complex history; from Ilha Formosa, as Portuguese navigators called the island, to the hyper-modern and well-developed democracy it has become today. The book draws parallels between Taiwan today and pre-war Europe, while reflecting on the West’s reactions to authoritarian regimes, both historically and in the present. With personal testimonies from residents - their hopes, fears and dreams - Rønneberg paints a vivid picture of a people determined to preserve their identity against external pressure. Taiwan is more than just an island; it is a testimony to the fact that democracy can flourish, even in the shadow of threatening and autocratic forces.

Our Honour and Our Fear

Abid Raja

A topical and deeply personal book shedding light on several aspects of one the greatest societal challenges of our time. At a young age, Abid Raja and his father were estranged. Now, as an adult, Raja accepts his father's plea for reconciliation, and a new world opens up for him. Relatives he has not seen for 16 years embrace him, and invite him back into a community that, as an integrated Norwegian, he had long ago opted out of. It starts with a wedding in Pakistan, and ends with invitations from uncles, aunts and cousins ​​across Europe. The experience is a wake-up call, which makes Raja wonder what his life could have been if his father had chosen another country to migrate to when he left Pakistan in the 1970s. In the bestselling book My fault, Raja brought the readers inside his childhood home in Oslo. This time he travels to notorious ghettos, hospitable homes as well as the gilded corridors of power in England, France, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Sweden and Denmark. In a Europe that has become polarized, he encounters people working for and against migration. He also encounters very different solutions to the challenges with integration. After this, Abid Raja sees his own country with new eyes. How could he have been blind to these issues? Is there still time to turn the tide, before the Norwegian integration project finally falters? And what challenges do Muslim boys and girls who grow up in Norway face today? There might be some answers in his own reconciliation, in the communities he meets - and in the story of his mother, who fell between two worlds. Who lived behind closed curtains in her Oslo apartment, and who is now buried in a cemetery in Mohri Sharif. «What distinguishes Raja from other travel writers, such as Morten Strøksnes, Erika Fatland, Åsne Seierstad, and recently also historian Nils Rune Langeland, is precisely the fact that he is the child of immigrants with a Muslim background.»NRK, five/six stars «Abid Raja is precise and strong here, pointing out a new challenge that everyone should take seriously.»DAGBLADET, five/six stars

“I Am an Alcoholic. And I Think You Are, Too”

Gunn-Helen Øye

Outwardly, she was a successful professional who celebrated job success with champagne. At home, Gunn-Helen Øye was an exhausted mother who secretly drank Martini from coffee cups. She went from managing work and toddlers with a glass of wine on Monday and two glasses of wine at a work party on Tuesday to losing control of her “cool lifestyle”. Everything started to revolve around the drinking. “Why didn't you tell me?” Øye asks now. “After all, you were the people closest to me; my partner, parents, siblings, friends and colleagues.” Now, thirty years since Øye stopped drinking alcohol, she still celebrates her sobriety anniversary, the decisive moment when she checked into rehab. In this book, she shares her powerful story and, as a trend researcher, examines the role that alcohol plays in today’s social culture and the explosive power of unconscious habits.
