Kor var ho var* (How wary she was):

Christmas Day 1964 Olav H. Hauge wrote the following in his diary: I woke up today with arrows in my heart. It hurts, that is all I can say.

A profound dive into Olav H. Hauge’s relationships to women, his thoughts about his own life and living alone.

Heidi Tronsmo and Glenn Erik Haugland of Opera Omnia made music for several of Hauge’s poems. Tronsmo’s voice and Haugland’s kingdom of sound created the set. Erling Wollestad read from the diaries in Hauge’s own dialect from Hardanger.
