Danish writer and psychologist Glenn Bech is the class traveler who got tired of feeling inferior and discriminated against because of his background and homosexuality. His book I No Longer Recognize Your Authority is a frustrated and tender manifesto. With anger, envy and humor, Glenn Bech tears down all illusions about a fair existence, and does away with the lies and double standards of Danish society. The book became a great poetic sensation in Denmark. It has been staged as a theater and translated into several languages. Now it comes in Swedish.
On October 22, Glenn Bech talks to Malmö-based author Maria Maunsbach about his book and his writing. The conversation is part of our new program series Nordic light, where some of the Nordic countries' most exciting writers visit Lund.
The conversation takes place in Danish/Swedish. Free entry, no pre-registration required.
Nordic Light is a collaboration between the library and cultural activities in Lund Municipality and the Nordic Association. Read more at folkbiblioteken.lund.se/nordisktljus.
