Nordisk Books Havoc

Originally deemed a cynical, pessimistic - and, above all, overly revealing - portrayal of life as a newspaperman upon its release in interwar Denmark, Havoc has since gone on to become a much loved modern classic in its home country, with its longed for shipwrecks' verse becoming one of the most oft quoted in the Danish language. Will Jastrau re-emerge into polite society, or sink to a place from where he will never resurface? Autorid: Tom Kristensen, Carl Malmberg
