Description

A riotous metafictional dissection of a famous Norwegian detective writer


Frode Brandeggen (19702014), an unknown voice to most readers, made his debut in 1992with the experimental 2,000+ page novel Conglomerate Breath. It was never reviewed and soonforgotten. After that, he created a new genre, writing fifteen micro-novels about Red Handler, aprotest-oriented crime fiction project aimed at confronting the genres weaknessand oftenunnecessary length.


As his weapon, he developed a private investigator who is already at thescene or in the immediate vicinity when foul play takes place, so that the perp can be caught redhanded and the case quickly solved, thus offering crime fiction to people who dont have thetime to read long books, or who simply hate to read, but love crime.


This book brings together all fifteen micro-novels Brandeggen wrote about RedHandler for the first time, and is also equipped with a comprehensive amount of enthusiastic, explanatory,complementary, and sometimes strangely digressive endnotes, written in the pen of Brandeggensclosest literary confidant in the final years, German professional annotator Bruno Aigner (1934).


This novel about the fiction Red Handler, Frode Brandeggen, and Bruno Aigner is Johan Harstads wildest, most hysterical project to date.
