Description

In conversation with children's book author, Elin á Rógvi, for a school event on the annual Book Days in the Nordic House in the Faroe Islands.

About the book:
The novel follows 11-year-old Mai who, despite having lived in Vestmanna for several years, feels like an outsider as she is constantly reminded that she is different because she is an immigrant... The author sheds light on what it feels like to grow up in a community where there is a need to bridge different cultures and languages (FarLit: https://www.farlit.fo/home/new-crime-novel-for-children)
