Böcker av Tom Kristensen

Tom Kristensen's modern classic "Hærværk" in a translation by Carl Malberg. Copenhagen, 1930. There is a ring at the door of Ole Jastrau's fifth floor apartment that will ignite a spark of restlessness within his soul, leading him into darkened velvet portiere-entranced bars and brightly glittering night clubs, from the mundane grind of literary criticism to the nocturnal otherworld of alcoholism and prostitution. Will Jastrau re-emerge into polite society, or sink to a place from where he will never resurface? Originally deemed a cynical, pessimistic - and, above all, overly revealing - portrayal of life as a newspaperman upon its release in interwar Denmark, Havoc has since gone on to become a much loved modern classic in its home country, with its ‘longed for shipwrecks' verse becoming one of the most oft quoted in the Danish language.

With nine victories, he holds the record for the most wins at the Le Mans 24 Hours - and he has written motorsport history. The Book, however, is more than just Tom Kristensen's chronicle of his successes at Le Mans.
