With a blend of humor and seriousness, Gunilla Heilborn attempts to untangle how all the disparate episodes she has gathered are connected and whether it is truly possible to understand the world better by reading both the *Iliad* and the *Odyssey*.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>*Works and Days*<\/em> consists of two parts. In one, we encounter grand tableaux with titles such as <em>\u201cA Place That Is Harsh in Winter, Cruel in Summer, Never Pleasant\u201d<\/em> and<em>\u201cThe Rose-Fingered Dawn<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the second part, Heilborn herself navigates through her earlier works in search of a beginning. Drawing inspiration from the stories of the ancient poets, a recent trip to Greece, and her earlier work <em>*This is not a love story*<\/em> from 2011, she tries to see if it\u2019s possible to link one event to another\u2014or if perhaps it\u2019s the lack of logic that characterizes everything we do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Norrlands Opera has previously staged several works by Gunilla Heilborn, including <em>*\u00c5tj\u00e4rn Stories*<\/em> (2006), <em>*The Five-Year Plan*<\/em> (2009), <em>*This Is Not a Love Story*<\/em> (2014), <em>*The Knowledge*<\/em> (2016), <em>*Boken*<\/em> (2018), and <em>*Merkurius*<\/em> (2022).
