Alf Proysen: Part I of III
A noted Norwegian singer and children's writer, Alf Prøysen's lyric stories appealed to a wide audience including both children and adults. His characters and observations carried strong nationalistic and anti-authoritarian overtones, transgressing the same class boundaries that he had been acutely aware of in his childhood. His ability to locate the humorous, the hopeful, and the romantic in the stark landscape of struggle and poverty made him one of the most pentetrating Norwegian folk artists of the 20th century.
