It’s called “Laura Palmers Hemmelige Dagbok” in Norwegian, and was released by Tiden in 1991.

Danish one is missing too…tried to look it up on google pics so i could link it but its a no-show…so guess it will be hard to find.
the french softcover one
I’ve got the Dutch version! Bought it two years ago secondhand since it isn’t available any other way but it made me understand Laura much better!
I assumed this was the cover all the 2011 editions had. Now I guess this the UK exclusive cover?
Correct!
Was the book originally published in paperback or hardcover?
