First, You have to find this sentence on the immense white page. I think this is how its going to be until the author of this work finds a clever way to present it. Because this does not fit your typical screenformat. The way of telling this story is different. It demands something of you as a reader. You can think of it as moving in a landscape, scroll up and down, search forth and back, to under-stand the stories of these people and objects in Vardø. It is not given where the story starts or stops. Or, it doesn’t.Again, I am truly sorry (and a little bit happy) for the inconviences the size of this work represents.

Enter this bigger space. Connected ocean. exchange of words. Departure. The sea is calm today, Take the fenders in, make ready the nets, careful its slippery here, can you loosen that green rope, oh I think its frozen, we’re taking her down now, loosen. one more time, See I told you they would come down. Now smoothly, keep it coming. So hows the wife, the children? He failed his math-test? We’re gonna go for another round. Just keep her steady, I’ll tighten the rope when we reach the other boats. I think my boots are leaking, they’ve been taking in water since a couple of weeks ago, I came home with one wet foot. No, they dont last longer than a year now anyways. They said down at the store that they would take new ones in today. Care for coffee? I’ll make some. I need coffe, there were kids making noise this night, it woke me up, I couldnt fall back to sleep, screaming and shouting all over the place, I think its that kid of David whats his name, staying up all night and everything. Some strong coffee will do huh? Ingrid sent me these cakes she made yesterday.

.......

What? What are you saying? Look at those whales, beautiful, amazing! I’ve never seen them so close up before. Look its huge. My grandfather used to tell me about the whales in the fjord. So thats something to tell the wife when I get home, huh? Never seen anything like it. You know whales can grow a hundred years old, this whale could have met your grandfather, ha ha! It probably did. They are soo big.

......To call it a day, we’re going in, take her in, ah the stupid boot, I’m gonna get a new pair now, they sell them in Ica, right? Going right away, after the gutting, fish for dinner tonight, yes I’ll bring some home it will make Ingrid happy.
