Publisher's Synopsis
We find ourselves in a late capitalist, postmodern and postcolonial society. Strannberg, on the other hand, is a product of something completely different...
Strannberg - The Chauvinist Manifesto is the preliminary complete collection of the cartoons Strannberg, which is published in the norwegian literature newspaper BLA - Bokvennen Litterær Avis (the book contains all the cartoons in the period 2016-2024). In the series, we follow the self-absorbed author Strannberg (and his agent Don Ravioli), who travel through the thick and thin of Norwegian cultural life - populated by snobbish cultural elites, socialites, critics, writers, philosophers, and the occasional visit from Karl Ove Knausgård.
