Speaker: Easterine Iralu
Topic: Three Nagas in Norway
Place: Auditorium in Nedre Lysthus
More Information: Easterine Iralu is giving out the book, "Three Nagas in Norway" on March 24th at ARK Bokhandel, 14:00. Easterine has been a "Fribyforfatter" in Tromsø from 2005 to 2007. The book is about coming to Norway and experiencing Norwegian culture. The book has amusing narratives initially striking one as a light hearted read of cultural encounters and adjusting to life in Northern Norway, especially in chapters like, "Klær, Klær" and "Don't boil the fish!". But it also has its serious moments, where the writer talks about the sad Naga reality, which is influenced by a 60-year old conflict. The Naga history, is a story of double colonisation, fight for freedom and continuing conflict.
