About me / Bio:
Nils Kjær was a Norwegian writer, essayist, and literary critic. He was one of the first in Norwegian literary history to live off his writing without having a fixed occupation. He was a frequent guest at many of Oslo's cafes, where he mingled with other free-spirited artists and intellectuals. He was known for his witty and sharp essays, travel sketches, and reviews, as well as his plays that often satirized contemporary issues and trends. He was also an outspoken and controversial figure, who expressed anti-Semitic, anti-democratic, and anti-parliamentary views. He was influenced by European writers such as Oscar Wilde, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Henrik Ibsen. His most famous play is Det lykkelige valg (The Happy Choice), a comedy about language, temperance, religion, and politics. He also wrote Regnskabets dag (The Day of Reckoning), Tilskueren (The Spectator), Det evige savn (The Eternal Longing), and Kong Midas (King Midas). He died of pneumonia in 1924, at the age of 53.
