Fugl (in English: "Bird") is a 2019 Norwegian science fiction novel by Sigbjørn Skåden, and is the first science fiction novel written by a Sámi author.[1] Fugl tells the story of a small human colony on a distant planet where speech cannot be heard. Fugl is Skåden's first novel written in Norwegian, and has been interpreted as an allegory of the Sámi peoples' loss of their language due to forced assimilation and Norwegianization. Fugl was translated to French by Marina Heide as Oiseau in 2021.[2]

Márkomeannu-2018 organizers consulted Sámi author Sigbjørn Skåden—one of the festival founders—discussing various aspects of the festival, including the festival-plot. Skåden was then working on his 2019 book Fugl, the first sci-fi novel written by a Sámi author. ↑
