Literature: Nordic Noir

This course will examine the publishing phenomenon of Nordic Noir, locating its roots in the early twentieth century, before exploring four contemporary novels from the genre. Our texts will be Doctor Glas by Hjalmar Soderberg; Smilla’s Sense of Snow by Peter Hoeg; The Bird Tribunal - Agnes Ravatn; The Flatey Enigma - Viktor Arnor Ingolfson and Missing - Karin Alvtegen.

There will be ample scope for lively discussion in our sessions

Do you want to learn the basics of watercolours? Have you tried before and given up in frustration? Why not join this course for support and encouragement?

Come and join us to find out more.
