When You Were an Idiot: Vipeholm, the Experiments and My Uncle is a merciless exposure of a place and a time, where people were reduced to numbers, codes and “material”. With her personal input and meticulous research, Randi Mossige-Norheim repopulates Vipeholm. She opens the darkness of the archives and lets those we called idiots come to the fore.
Randi Mossige-Norheim, who won the 2021 Great Journalism Prize for her radio documentary about Vipeholm, tells more about the institution and its inmates based on her new book.
