Lars Saabye Christensen

The story that makes readers laugh continuously and fills their eyes with tears is a true masterpiece of Norwegian literature.

Half-brother is a family chronicle seen through the distorted vision of the main character Barnum - a man with an unusual name and unusual appearance. Barnum, great-grandson, grandson, son and half-brother, unwinds and wraps the ball of his family history, searching for the roots of his artistic creation. His search spans both time and space, moving for more than half a century from Oslo to Greenland and Italy.
