How we read a book depends in part on our expectations of the text. If it says “novel” on the cover, we will approach it differently than if the description is “essays”. Does the author have a responsibility for clarifying how their text should be read? And what happens when the author chooses to shift between genres in one and the same book? Croatian author Dubravka Ugrešić is known for her genre-crossing works. She talks with Ane Farsethås, who recently published Grenseverdier. Sannhet og litterær metode, with Kari Jegerstedt as moderator.
