‘Brightly Shining’ Published in Slovenia

Ingvild H. Rishøi’s critically acclaimed novel Brightly Shining just hit the shelves in Slovenia.

Brightly Shining is a tale about a father who does his best but not enough, about a sister who tries to fill his shoes, and a daughter who never stops hoping. It is about the reality of addiction but also the power of dreams and believing in the kindness of strangers. With an unfaltering loyalty to the child’s perspective, Norwegian cult writer Ingvild H. Rishøi gives us the world through the eyes of her unforgettable young protagonist Ronja: naïve yet pragmatic, hopeful yet dark.

Brightly Shining was published in Slovenia by Mladinska Knjiga on November 2nd, 2024.
