Danish author Niels Krause-Kjær discusses his family saga Ude for uden in conversation with Lise Vandborg. The novel, which has won the Golden Laurel award, is written from his own family history and follows a farmer who goes from being seen as a hero to being cast as a villain, and the sense of lost meaning and identity that followed for many farming families.
The evening is a chance to explore the novel's themes, including the silence within families and how a family saga can shed new light on both past and present. Niels Krause-Kjær also has further readings coming up in the weeks ahead, including one in Skælskør on 26 November.
