Bókin um tað góða
Bókin um tað góða

Faroese publisher Sprotin has just published the book “Bókin um tað góða” by Faroese author Carl Johan Jensen. This book is different in style from his two previous books “Ó-, søgur um djevulskap” (2005) and “Eg síggi teg betur í myrkri” (2014). The Narrator tells the reader that he will die in half an hour. The narrator takes the reader on a travel down memory lane to his childhood, his relationships, his travels abroad and the circumstances that unintentionally brought him, now an alcoholic wreck, to this cellar in Torshavn where he is spending the last thirty minutes of his life.
