Hvordan udforsker man det ukendte, og hvordan kan litteraturen åbne vores øjne for nye perspektiver? På Heartland 2025 mødes forfatterne Kristian Leth og Jonas Eika i en samtale om det uforklarlige, virkelighedens grænser og de historier, der former vores forståelse af verden.
Begge er markante stemmer i dansk samtidslitteratur, men med vidt forskellige greb: Kristian Leth kombinerer poetiske og historiske perspektiver med undersøgelser af religiøse grundfortællinger, mens Jonas Eika arbejder med surrealistiske og genrebrydende fortællinger, der udfordrer sproget og vores opfattelse af virkeligheden. Sammen deler de erfaringer fra skriveprocessen, udfordringerne og glæderne ved forfatterskabet - og betydningen af at turde tænke anderledes om verden.
Jonas Eika (f. 1991) er forfatter til Lageret, Huset Marie (2015), Efter Solen (2019) - som indbragte ham Nordisk Råds Litteraturpris - og senest den genrebrydende roman Åben himmel (2024), der undersøger kristne kvindebevægelser og deres forhold til verden, Gud og hinanden.
Kristian Leth (f. 1980) har skrevet flere romaner og digtsamlinger og står bag radioprogrammet og podcasten Biblen Leth Fortalt. I sin bog Verdens Vigtigste Bog undersøger han Bibelens betydning som kulturelt og eksistentielt grundlag for vores liv i dag.
Samtalen modereres af journalist Klaus Rothstein og præsenteres i samarbejde med L’OR.
