Thursday, October 24 at 7:00 PM, you will meet Ole Torp in conversation with journalist and editor Steinar Nielsen about the book "The Depths Under Him".
On Thursday, August 22, 1940, the D/S Keret of Bergen was overtaken in the Atlantic Ocean by the German submarine U-37. On every single voyage, submarine captain Victor Oehrn sent merchant ships to the bottom of the ocean. On board the D/S Keret is 26-year-old Nicolay Torp as mate and telegraphist.
Now his son, the prominent journalist and NRK presenter Ole Torp, tells about his father's dramatic voyage and his experiences as a war sailor during the six years he was away from home.
The book, "The Depths Below Him," is also a book about the aftermath of the war, about the marks the war left not only on the sailors but also on the next generation.
Ole Torp was born in Bergen in 1951. He has traveled the world as a reporter for NRK and Dagbladet. He has been a correspondent in New York, Washington DC and Beijing.

CHANGES part 3
How thin, long and difficult is it possible to turn wood? Vidar Iversen shows, through his objects and sculptures in wood, that little is impossible when he uncompromisingly follows an idea - and at the same time masters the craft. The exhibition opens at the same time as the Wooden Boat Festival, and makes Galleri Kunstparken even more relevant for wood lovers.

If safety is not found at home or out there, where do you go?
"Word for blood" is a true story, an inside report from the little sister of Sweden's most dangerous gang leader. It is a painful and honest story about being human and female and ending up in the middle of a deadly gang showdown - in a world where adults are not present. Faysa's closest friends and family members are on opposite sides of the gang war. She no longer has a record of how many she has lost. Now she tells her story.
The National Theatre and the Norwegian Theatre are creating a play based on Faysa Idle's hotly-anticipated book, "A Word for Blood". Her story concerns us all, regardless of who we are or where we live. Perhaps Faysa's story can open up conversations about how we can create a society where we take better care of each other?
--Said about the book:
"Faysa Idle tells her story powerfully and honestly
Business News
"A story that tears at the heart and gives you chills"
Gyldendal Norwegian Publishing House
--Performance length: 1 hour 20 minutes (no intermission).
