I Cannot Get to Sleep

This Norwegian book "for boys" on mourning is gentle, tender and poetical. A little boy who can’t get to sleep at night finds the safety in his father’s arms. Only at this point he dares to ask about things that bother him. Do birds sleep at night? And what about foxes? And what Mum who died: will she wake up and come home? The dad and the boy are night walking, questions full of anxiety, kind and clear answers given by his dad, safety and peace under the stars. Translated by Marie Novotná
