Kristin Lavransdatter: The Wreath, The Wife, The Cross

Kristin Lavransdatter: The Wreath, The Wife, The Cross

by Sigrid Undset  •  Tina Nunnally (Translator)

  • LITERATURE
  • 2005
  • PAPER
  • 1184 PAGES

This masterpiece by the Nobel Prize-winning Norwegian author, first published in 1927, has never gone out of print. The three historical novels, here in an omnibus edition, recreate a woman's life during the Middle Ages in devoutly Catholic Norway. The books, which follow Lavransdatter from her youth, though tumultuous marriage and reverberations of the plague, combines scholarly knowledge with keen psychological insight and a romantic outlook.  (NOR40, $27.00)
