Story
Verging on death, a starving, destitute writer navigates the cold and indifferent city of Kristiania in search of his next meal. Frenzied and fevered, he chews on stale bread, devours scraps of wood, and bites his own finger, sleeping under the stars in old, pungent blankets, until one day he is able to sell an article and buy some food - only for the cycle then to repeat itself....

A Tortured Soul
Reviewed: 05-02-24
If the narrator had not done such an incredible job, this man's troubled, constantly uncontrolled thoughts would have made the book almost unbearable.
it is a story of someone so frustrated with himself and yet who has the occasional grand illusion and wild misunderstandings, which are constantly tempered by his brief encounters with others.
Written shortly after WWI, it gives you a glimpse of Norwegian society in that time period.
Well worth the listen, but you might need frequent breaks!

Story
From the United States and Britain to continental Europe and beyond, liberal democracy is under siege, while authoritarianism is on the rise. In Twilight of Democracy, Anne Applebaum, an award-winning historian of Soviet atrocities who was one of the first American journalists to raise an alarm about antidemocratic trends in the West, explains the lure of nationalism and autocracy. In this captivating essay, she contends that political systems with radically simple beliefs are inherently appealing, especially when they benefit the loyal to the exclusion of everyone else.
