Join us on November 4 for a talk with ASF Visiting Lecturer Silje Solheim Karlsen on identity in contemporary S�mi literature!

In Norwegian/S�mi author Kathrine Nedrejord�s critically acclaimed novel The S�mi Problem (2024), we meet Marie, who has long hidden her S�mi identity. Through an intense journey in both history and geography, the novel explores what it means to be S�mi � and what it means to be a woman. Dr. Karlsen�s lecture will focus on Nedrejord�s novel, and particularly address existential questions surrounding the process of finding and acknowledging one�s identity.
