About the author

Tor Ulven (1953–1995) was a Norwegian poet. He is considered one of the major poets of the Norwegian post-war era, and he won several major literary prizes in Norwegian literature.

His early works, consisting of traditional modernist verse poetry, were heavily influenced by André Breton and the surrealist movement. As the 1980s progressed he developed a more independent voice, both stylistically and thematically. The later part of his work consists mainly of prose. He committed suicide in 1995 in Oslo, the city where he was born.

Reviews

Første møte med Ulven. Totalt fem diktsamlinger inni boka, og jeg likte best «Som fossile bølgeslag». Denne mannen har virkelig en enorm fascinasjon for både de fjærkledde og knokler. Mye snakk om fugler, engler og skjelett, som gjenspeiler Ulvens litt mytiske, utopiske/dystopiske (kommer an på auget som ser..) landskap. Skal ikke uttale meg noe særlig mer før jeg har lest andre greier av ham, men dette likte jeg!
