<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Naiv. Super. is a story, naively yet poignantly imagined, about a young Norwegian man who suddenly finds himself in a crisis. To discover what's going on--and to rediscover himself--he drops out of his studies at the university, sells most of his belongings, and moves into his brother's unoccupied apartment. Through contemplation and play, he sorts through life's meanings, tries to gain perspective on the world, revisits his lost childhood, and becomes obsessed with the concept of time. After several weeks, he joins his brother for a vacation in New York City, where, with his brother's help, he finds how best to live life. The side-column glossary and Norwegian-to-English dictionary compiled exclusively for this book make this edition of Loe's original text ideal for language learners and lovers of Norway and Norwegian culture.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Erlend Loe was born in Trondheim, Norway, in 1969. He has been involved in theater, worked as a journalist, and been a substitute teacher. He has written several others books, including Tatt av kvinnen (1993), Maria og José (1994), Fisken (1994), Fakta om Finland (2001), and Doppler (2004).
