About the author
Olga Ravn is a Danish poet and novelist whose writing often gives voice to bodies, objects, archives, and workers placed inside institutions that claim authority over their meaning.
The Employees used statements from a fictional spacecraft commission. The Wax Child turns records from seventeenth-century Danish witch trials into a narrative spoken by a doll made by an accused woman.
Where to start
Start with The Wax Child for historical horror, or The Employees for Ravn’s short, formally fragmented work of workplace science fiction.
