With over two million books sold in 24 languages, Lars Mytting is one of Norway’s best-selling and celebrated writers, and he joins us for a fireside chat for one night only. His family mystery The Sixteen Trees of the Somme received the Norwegian National Booksellers’ Award; his non-fiction book Norwegian Wood: Chopping, Stacking and Drying Wood the Norwegian Way is a fascinating insight into Scandinavian culture and became a phenomenal global sensation. His historical fiction trilogy, The Sister Bells – a spellbinding and epic family drama set in WWII-era Norway – has also been an international bestseller. On the publication of the trilogy’s final instalment The Night of the Scourge, Lars joins Liz Grant for a conversation about his glittering writing life.
