  • Summary

  • In Los Angeles as part of her US tour for her new book, A New Beginning: Life on the Frontlines, Nakskov-born Danish author ANNA ECKHOFF talks about life working in NGOs in Sudan, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Palestine, and the simultaneously eye-opening and isolated environment of a western expatriate. And she contrasts the two phases of her life, first raising six children in Denmark and working in IT, and when widowed, going out into the world's conflict zones at 56.

    Anna selects a work by Vilhelm Hammershøi from the SMK collection.
