Jo Nesbø has been awarded the 2019 Riverton Prize for his twelfth installment in the Harry Hole series, Knife. The very prestigious crime writing award is annually given to the best Norwegian crime story. Nesbø has been the recipient of this award previously, in 1997, for the first novel in the Harry Hole series, The Bat.

“Knife is a dark, compelling and sorrowful novel with great solemnity and with a superb conduction of a complicated investigation. It is elegantly crafted with constant surprises and several twists and turns, and with many brilliant individual stories about past events.” said jury member Hans H. Skei during the award ceremony that took place outside the House of Literature in Oslo earlier today.

The television series and the feature film about the characters Eva and Adam became iconic works of popular culture in late 90s’ and early 2000s’ Sweden. Now, a new film about the young couple is in the making.

Adam is new to the class and Eva has made a no-boys pact with her best friend – boys are just too childish. But when a kissing party game brings Eva and Adam together, it’s simply too difficult to put a brake on their feelings. Perhaps even impossible.

Eva och Adam marks Caroline Cowan’s debut as a feature film director. Johan Unenge and Måns Gahrton are the writers, and Francy Suntinger will produce for Filmlance.
