Kenneth Moe got tarjei vesaas’ debutantpris – NRK

This year’s prize winner impresses with ein philosophical, aphoristic and acknowledge prose. Through concise and staying power fragment, examines author ein young man Einsemd, self-contempt and depression, desire and kjærleik grief. In this existential datum becomes literature both rescue and obstacles.

A city in the book he asks the question of literature EiT symptom: “What about literature is both symptom and medication interchangeably? What if it shifts so seamlessly between the two, that you think there is one, when it really is the other? “(P.69).

The book’s literary conversation, from him to ho, give thought power and industry leading stalemate around EiT confined life to come. And the longed and handlingslamminga which looked out on life through the cracks in the blinds, held pain and interfaces up. The book tells us about the håplause between humans in kjærleik broke but when it gets really, the opposition hoped precisely in literature – and here – the letter blatant effect. Here is the author’s prose also a survey that points out beyond the individual and painful.

Here are advised of classical literature, among other Marcus Aurelius, Roland Barthes and François de La Rochefoucauld, Forfattarar who cultivated it pithy through letter- and short form, and even if it is høgverdige inspiration, there is also plenty of room for the trivial observation.

the novel “Restless” is full of paradoxical sentence with great linguistic precision. A spot in the book it is stated: “When the literature comes in the way of life, and the life of literature, they must be brought together in new ways,” and it expresses in many ways the core of the work prisvinnaren performs in this novel. He tries to bring literature and life together in new ways in texts ranging in ATTITUDE, style and form.

Order of the banal and the høgverdige, the vile and the scholars makes “Restless” for an under-the and contradictory works, which despite its scarce hundred pages experience that unusual innhaldsrik. And it is therefore a pleasure to give tarjei vesaas’ debutantpris 2015 Kenneth Moe.
