Personal Politics with Brit Bildøen - a podcast by Free Word

On 14 November 2016, award-winning Norwegian author Brit Bildøen joined us at Free Word Centre to read from her novel Seven Days in August - translated by Becky Crook - and share her thoughts on love, loss, relationships and climate change.

Set a few years after the deadly 2011 terror attack in Norway’s Utøya Island, Otto and Sofie are trying to put the pieces of their life back together without their beloved daughter, who was murdered alongside countless other youths on one of the worst days in Norway’s history.
