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! ).
