Norwegian Wood: Lars Mytting Talks Wood Chopping, Stacking and Drying

Norwegian author Lars Mytting’s book Norwegian Wood – the definitive woodcutter’s bible to preparing firewood – spread like wildfire around the world. No wonder, when our relationship with fire is ancient and universal and the age-old rituals around chopping and stacking wood continue to be a part of 21st-century life. Lars Mytting was in conversation with John Campbell.
Recorded at the 2025 Featherston Booktown Karukatea Festival.
