Shows all the signs of being the "junior" work it was. The mature Undset would almost certainly have removed pages of "dialog" whch philosophize in ways no living person ever would do.
Sigrid Undset was a giant among early twentieth century authors--especially women authors. Undset's two monumental works, the trilogy `Kristin Lavransdatter' and the tetralogy `Olav Audunssøn' (titled The Master of Hestviken in English), both set in Medieval Norway, for which she earned her Nobel Prize in literature, greatly overshadow her earlier and later works.
Summary: Some early realist works by a Nobel Prize-winning author that read as if they were written today. Pity the winners of the Nobel Prize for Literature who haven't the good fortune to write in English.
About Sigrid Undset
Undset was born in Kalundborg, Denmark, but her family moved to Norway when she was two-years-old. In 1924, she converted to Catholicism and became a lay Dominican. She fled Norway in 1940 because of her opposition to Nazi Germany and the German occupation, but returned after the end of World War II in 1945.Sigrid Undset received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1928. Most of the praise was for her medieval novels including the trilogy about Kristin Lavransdatter. This trilogy has been translated into more than 80 languages and is among the world’s most read novels....
