Godtfeldt shows that Bødker's works have strong aesthetic ties to European Modernism but that they also highly original as such. She focuses on Bødker's adult literature (she's mostly known as a children's book author), especially the experimental novel "Pap" and reads them in the Arena-Modernist context.
