Oslos begredelige historie tells the sad story of Oslo, the capital city that was never meant to be. The book was published in 2004. I still think it's my funniest work, despite the deadly serious subject matter. Unfortunately it's only available in Norwegian, if even that. The book stores don't carry it anymore, so an online reseller is probably the only chance of finding it.
Illustration and book cover by Ludvig O. Ravensberg: "På Karl Johan".
OSLOS BEGREDELIGE HISTORIE
Utgitt av Aschehoug, 2004.
Oslo er en nødløsning som har eksistert i mer enn tusen år. Denne boka kaster et humoristisk blikk på hovedstadens historie, som for Oslo-borgere flest er like ukjent som den er burlesk.
"Anbefales på det sterkeste!"
"Fantastisk morsom bok! Har anbefalt til alle kjente. Dette er en historie-bok som gjør at jeg for første gang ser linjene i Oslos liv."

If there's a common denominator in my work, it's probably that none of it should be taken too seriously – art is far too important for that.
