Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

We''ve all stood on a street corner and let the city''s lights and sounds pass by. What do we hear when we listen to the sounds of the city? What traces do they leave in us? The city and the streets are the same as before, but the people who emerge in Echoes of a City have never been seen before.

At the centre are Ewald and Maj Kristoffersen, but their fates are closely interwoven with the streets they live on. Down the road a couple has a butcher''s shop. They have a son, Jostein, who goes deaf after a traffic accident. Jesper, Ewald and Maj''s son, promises to be his ears in the world. The butcher couple and the widow Mrs Vik have a telephone, but not the Kristoffersen family. Jesper takes piano lessons, Mrs Vik meets the widower Olaf Hall who runs the second-hand bookshop at the cemetery. His stepson, Bjørn Stranger, is the one who saves Jostein''s life when he gets run over.

There are few - if any - who can conjure up a time and place in a way that makes it alive for us here and now like Lars Saabye Christensen.
