Description

Doppler by Erlend Loe in the original Norwegian!

An original Norwegian novel in bokmål for learners at level B2, suitable for learning Norwegian through contemporary literature.

 

An absurd and unconventional novel about a man who leaves his comfortable life behind and moves into the forest in an attempt to escape consumerism and social expectations.

Andreas Doppler leads an orderly, comfortable life. Everything changes shortly after his father's death, when he falls off his bicycle during a trip through the forest. What seems like a minor incident makes him look at his everyday life differently. He decides to distance himself from his former existence, leaves home and moves into a tent in the forest outside Oslo.

Before long, his companion is a young moose named Bongo, orphaned after Doppler kills its mother for food. The increasingly absurd events become the starting point for a story about a man trying to free himself from social expectations, consumerism and a life governed by endless obligations.

Erlend Loe combines his characteristic humour and absurdity with reflections on contemporary society, family, success and the desire to withdraw from everyday life. Doppler is both an entertaining story and a subversive critique of a world in which owning things and constantly achieving new goals can become more important than simply living.

 

Why read Doppler in the original Norwegian?

It is an original Norwegian-language edition in bokmål.

The novel introduces readers to contemporary literary Norwegian and natural sentence structures used in the language.

Erlend Loe's distinctive style combines straightforward narration with absurdity and humour.

Because the book is an original Norwegian text, you practise the language and encounter it in a natural context.
