Ingvar Ambjørnsen - a literary professor
–Ambjørnsen is a diverse writer and the works he has done will stand for a long time. The works must not be dismissed as populist and something that was lost. With his earlier bajas books, juicy and lush language and now more mature and with a very good language, Ambjørnsen has become a literary professor. He is one of the greatest storytellers in Norway, and so popular that Akademia stays away. Ambjørnsen has lived as a freelance writer and received many awards. Not many people are more clear about this, and it is important to remember it, explains Kjeld-Willy Hansen.
A little about Ambjørnsen:
- The book “Elling” has been translated into many languages
- Wrote the best literature on anxiety and depression
- The books and films about “Pelle and the Professional” got a whole generation of young people talking, and to start reading
- Has gone from a long-haired weed smoker, with a background as a scout, bird watcher to becoming a naturally lyrical person
- We can mention genres such as short story, nonfiction book, novel, poetry collection, column in VG.
- Stands up for others who are having a hard time and allows themselves to be interviewed for free: Bokbad, Zappafestival
More about Ingvar Ambjørnsen:
Honorary citizen of Larvik
– If you read about Lillevika in Ambjørnsen’s books, yes, he tells about Larvik. Even though he moved when he was 17-18 years old, there are many stories from his time here. The municipality did little to promote Ambjørnsen’s writing, believes Hansen, and goes on to say that Ambjørnsen is now one of 5 honorary citizens in Larvik and stands in the company of Arne Nordheim, Carl Nesjar, Antonio Bibalo and Thor Heyerdahl. Everyone has been given nice murals in the cityscape. While the others have also had busts placed around the city, the Festsalen/Festiviteten was named “Elling cafe” after Ambjørnsen, when it was renovated, concludes Hansen, who is looking forward to launching the audio guide route in Larvik.
