018 - Part II Chapter III - Penitence

from Story of Gösta Berling · host Selma Lagerlöf

The Story of Gösta Berling, published in Sweden in 1894, catapulted its author to literary fame. This captivating collection of tales is rooted in real events and paints a vivid picture of life in the Värmland province during the early 19th century. Known for its serene landscapes, Värmland features vast forests, winding rivers, and tranquil lakes, while its sparse population clings to age-old traditions, with mining as the mainstay of its economy. Miss Lagerlöf, inspired by the wild legends of her homeland, masterfully infuses these stories with her unique and vibrant interpretation. (Summary from the foreword by Pauline Bancroft Flach)
