Sørum, Steffen R.M.

Steffen René Marandon Sørum (b. 1976) has French ancestors. He is personally convinced that his family can be traced back to the French side of the crusaders. The first impression of his debut novel, Du elsker meg ( You Love Me, 2000), sold out after two weeks. In 2008, the book came out in a new edition where seven well-known Norwegian authors honoured his authorship with remixes. He has later published two novels with immigration, cricket and literary experiments as their most important ingredients. He has edited the literary periodical ‘Vinduet’ and now works as an editor in a publishing firm. The Crusaders is his first book series for children and young people.
