About this book
In the late 19th century, societal shifts in Norway prompted a wave of new narratives exploring the complexities of urban life. "Elinkautinen" by Jonas Lie delves into the poignant journey of Barbro Högden, a mountain girl navigating the challenges of city existence. As she grapples with the harsh realities of work and motherhood, the novel illuminates themes of resilience and societal expectation. Unique to this tale are Barbro's fierce determination and her confrontation with the stark contrasts between rural innocence and urban demands. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, "Elinkautinen" serves as a compelling exploration of personal struggle against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society, inviting readers to reflect on the enduring human spirit.
