In partnership with the Center for Writers and Translators, we are delighted to present Norways most celebrated contemporary writer, Gunnhild yehaug, in conversation on her latest collection of short fiction Evil Flowers. Across its 25 stories, yehaug renovates the form again and again, confirming Lydia Daviss observation that each of her fictions is a formal surprise, smart and droll. Inspired by Charles Baudelaire, the groundbreaking book features an ornithologist whose brain slips into the toilet bowl, medicinal leeches that ingest information from fiberoptic cables, and an elderly woman who is trapped with a ravenous lion. Join us as we step inside yehaugs wonderfully imaginative mind and explore the marvelous new directions she has paved for short fiction.
