Danes value 'folkeoplysning' (public enlightenment). Libraries are social hubs where people meet to discuss 'gode bøger'. H.C. Andersen is the most famous author. Every Danish child grows up hearing that his stories are 'gode bøger'. A 'god bog' is an essential part of the 'vinterhygge' (winter coziness) ritual. Danish 'Nordic Noir' crime novels are internationally famous. Many Danes will recommend them as 'en spændende og god bog'.
