“If I couldn’t be a princess, I wanted to be a writer.”
The author Stina Stoor was called a literary prodigy after her debut with the short story collection Bli som folk. However, after the success, Stina got hit with writer’s block. In Elin Berge’s sensitive and intimate portrait, Stina struggles with the very same things in life that she builds her literary material upon: growing up, a problematic relationship with her now demented father – and the question of how far one can go in the autobiographical.
