About

I am a writer, translator, editor, and critic living in Berlin. In 2024, I was awarded a three-year grant from the Norwegian Non-Fiction Writers and Translators Association. In addition to my books, Frykt og avsky i demokratiet (2020), Krystallpalasset (2024) and Øya i verdens ende (2026), I have written extensively for Norwegian magazines and newspapers on literature, culture, art, philosophy, and political and ideological currents. Since 2016, I have been an editor at the independent publisher House of Foundation (H//O//F).
