Description
Originally published in Greenlandic in 2015, Zombieland was nominated for The Nordic Council Literature Prize in 2016. The book is a collection that combines short stories with short sections of poetry. All texts can be seen as allegories that critique Greenlandic society. Some condemn the older generation of Greenlanders who fell into alcohol abuse and neglected their children. Others express the younger generation's refusal to be represented as subservient to Denmark. While alcoholism has decreased, and sovereignty has been claimed, the memories of the suffering and betrayal of the older generation remain. All of Steenholdt's stories emphasise the flaws of contemporary Greenland such as poor journalism, untrustworthy leadership, ineffective social institutions and a dysfunctional legal system making Steenholdt's Greenland a 'Zombieland' - a place where no-one is in control.
