Imagine how creatures moves, at mid- night when the sun never sets, here in the arctic circle. Tidsskjul In a weird story about nostalgia, written by Bulgarian author Georgi Gospodinov, the entire world debate which version of the past they want to live in, in the future. The Absent Someone who is not here, but whos presence is felt still. Nothing is lost, nothing is won, everything is transformed.
