RSVP to attend in-person or via Zoom for Edvard’s book talk on Saturday, April 2 at 11:00 a.m. at Norway HouseFrom one of Norway’s leading writers, translated into English for the very first time, comes a transatlantic novel of dreams, sacrifice, and transformation set at the turn of the twentieth century.
The first installment of a trilogy, Haymaker in Heaven is a sprawling saga—drawn from Edvard Hoem’s own family history—and a vivid portrait of two countries at a critical moment of intersection.
"Hoem's work is a really engaging read that inspires us to delve into our imaginations about the lives of our recent ancestors. And Chace's translation beautifully captures the flow of Hoem's nynorsk prose."
Joseph Grødahl, Programs & Events Director at Norway House and moderator for the book talk
