Janne Teller in conversation with Cristina Fuentes La Roche

Justicia

Jericó 2026, 

Justicia is the first novel by Janne Teller (Denmark) in 11 years. Known far and wide for books such as Nothing, the writer has needed two decades to finish this book, which she began when she was working as a UN diplomat. She will talk to Cristina Fuentes La Roche about this book, which has what the author calls “the mother of all wars” —the Palestinian-Israeli conflict— in the background. It tells the story of the complex relationship between a father, a UN representative, and his activist daughter, whose killing he struggles to come to terms with. In conversation with Cristina Fuentes La Roche.
