About the Author

Anders Vane

Anders Vane is a Norwegian literary author and a pioneering voice. His work explores the quiet shadows of the human soul, moving through moral gray zones, psychological depth, and ancient echoes that haunt the present.

Vane’s writing carries clear ties to Jon Fosse’s spare intensity, Cormac McCarthy’s stark gravity, Bataille’s confrontations with the forbidden, and Cioran’s razor-edged doubt. There’s also a David Lynch undertow where dream-logic, dread, and the uncanny slips in at the edges, and, beneath it all, a Tolkien sense of myth: not as comfort, but as deep time pressing against the now.

Shaped by Norse heritage, Anders Vane writes where certainty falters and language refuses easy answers. Leaving readers with questions that echo long after the last page.
