I Knew a Man From Texas
2020
Jacob Tom
ISBN: 9788269187717
English
Stavanger is an eclectic place and home to eccentric people with rich and odd stories to tell: from kings and fires and nazis, to spies and spectres and professors. With the cold North Sea rain and an American onlooker, a night at the People’s Theater can get pretty strange

I Saw That Girl in My Toluene Dream
2021
Jacob Tom
ISBN: 9788269187731
English
Loosely acting as a sequel to author’s earlier release, I Saw That Girl in My Toluene Dream follows Jacob through more extravagant and convoluted stories. However, the dusty stools in a dimly lit bar that characterized his first novel have been replaced by the wire-framed lounge chairs of a fluorescent-lit therapy office.

Tjatse & Idunn

Jacob Tom & Ida Ekrheim
ISBN: 9788269187724

Intimately inspired by classical works which have emphasized heroism, grandeur, love, and a dramatic sensibility, this collection of poetry is an attempt to capture the same ancient energy. Here, a steady stream of sonnets framed by lyrics, elegies, odes, and other forms of verse are strung together to tell a story of losing love and finding it again.

Treading Water
2022
Sara Soma
ISBN: 9788269187755
English
On the surface, Treading Water is exactly what it claims to be: a collection of poems about love and the ways in which trauma has a profound effect on it. Yet, what is revealed at its core is
much denser, much more telling of a writer erupting her heart onto the page with messy ink and a disregard for her own vulnerability.
