Take advantage of this episode to learn more about <strong>Fred Vargas<\/strong>, <strong>Jo\u00ebl Dicker<\/strong>, <strong>Pierre Lemaitre<\/strong>, <strong>Michel Bussi<\/strong>, and <strong>Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Parot<\/strong>, 5 authors who are easily accessible in Norway and whose novels have captivated a very broad and diverse audience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Franske krimb\u00f8ker: V\u00e5r guide til \u00e5rets p\u00e5skekrim!\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/4vj8zYgtpENsNfJgupyKRB?si=35c6c543fb8e4cab&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Fransk-norsk kaf\u00e9 (@franskkulturhus), season 2, episode 9, March 2024.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Lesser-Known Treasures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other Francophone crime authors deserve recognition for their work, if only for their originality in a genre long marked by somewhat repetitive narrative codes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We think, for example, of <strong>Natacha Calestr\u00e9m\u00e9<\/strong>, a journalist, editor, and also a documentary filmmaker very committed to the environmental and ecological cause. It&#8217;s with these concerns as the main plot that she writes her detective novels, in which the main character is the investigator Yoann Clivel. Calestr\u00e9m\u00e9 uses her knowledge in scientific and environmental matters to convey subtle messages, all while respecting the criminal plot of the story. At Fransk kulturhus, you can read her novel <em>Le testament des abeilles<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let&#8217;s also mention <strong>Richard Morgi\u00e8ve<\/strong> and his novel <em>Le Cherokee<\/em>. Known for the accuracy and incisiveness of his dialogues, Morgi\u00e8ve offers here a hypnotic and mysterious fresco of a 1950s America obsessed with flying saucers and the &#8220;red threat&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>S\u00e9bastien Japrisot<\/strong>, for his part, offers perfectly structured detective novels often adapted to cinema. His style perfectly blends suspense, the classic logic of the &#8220;thriller&#8221;, and more sentimental aspects. In <em>L&#8217;\u00e9t\u00e9 meurtrier<\/em>, a novel you can read at Fransk kulturhus, Japrisot tells the story of Elle, a Frenchwoman driven by desires for revenge in the charming setting of a Haute-Provence village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fan of Francophone literature?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consider checking out the program of our <a href=\"https:\/\/franskkulturhus.no\/en\/focus-on-our-literature-course-a-unique-experience\/\">Francophone literature course<\/a>, a course whose popularity is confirmed each year and in which you will analyze, in groups, recent novels belonging to extremely varied literary genres!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Norway, it&#8217;s traditional to spend the Easter holidays diving into detective novels (the famous &#8220;p\u00e5skekrim&#8221;, or Easter crime novel).
