Nordic Ventures is a spring series by Northwest Danish Association, showcasing topics from the Nordic region with a focus on Denmark.

On May 23rd Flemming Behrend will discuss his novel “78 RPM”.

“A young woman who travels to a foreign country to claim her beloved!
A trip through Germany during the last years of the war!
A priest who gets away with murder!
A mother who gets arrested in the middle of the night and charged with treason!
A jubilant description of the liberation of Denmark at the end of the war!
Are just a few of the many stories which fill the pages of this book by Flemming Behrend, written about the lives of the people in his family. The book takes you on a journey through times of peace and war. It gives you a close look at Europe during the the great wars, through the great depression and up until the end of World War II. It also paints a very personal picture of Copenhagen in the early fifties with all its charm and challenges. A must read for all with European roots or interest in European history” (Google Books).
