While browsing this morning, I just discovered two foreign books about Disney I had never heard about.

One is from Italy, Walt Disney: Prima Stella a Sinistra (Walt Disney- First Star to the Left) by Mariuccia Ciotta (Bompiani, 2005).

The second one is from Norway, Jakten Pa Onkel Walt: Fire Nr-Disney-Opplevelser by Anders Giaever (Cappelen, 2001). Would any of the Norwegian readers of this blog be able to share some information about it?

The translation of the title is "The Search for Uncle Walt: Four Near-Disney Experiences". The author is a Norwegian journalist who has been writing Disney-related material for years. Based on some of these experiences, among them a vistit to Carl Bark's home in the mid-1990's, he has written about the impact of American Disneyana on World Culture from a personal point of view.
