Patti Smith is in town for the
Bergenfest festival.
Saturday afternoon she signed copies of her novel "
Just Kids" recently out on Samlaget publishers, and translated into Norwegian by Brit Bildøen.
I have already read "Just Kids" in English (
blog post), so I sneaked in with a copy of "Seventh Heaven" (1971) in hand, just before she was ready to finish the signing session.
It seems like more people than me believe that a signature is adding value to a book, or is it just a celebrity issue? I admit I was a bit starstruck!
