Carsten Nagel (born 1955 in Copenhagen) is a Danish author of 12 published books, including novels and short story collections, plus a feature-length film, short film and a play to his credit.
Nagel has been described as a Nordic mix of Jean Genet and Henry Miller. His writing is known for its sparkling language, where pain and joy are natural twins. Although his books often have a serious existential focus, a devilish sense of humor is perhaps his most well-known trademark. Besides being a prolific writer, Carsten Nagel is a clinical psychologist, working with refugees who have suffered trauma and torture.
None of Carsten Nagel's books have been translated into English. The English titles below are thus not official, and subject to change if and when his works are published in English.
