Author Description

God and Woman: Dyrendal is a novel written by Norwegian author Johan Bojer and first published in 1921. The story follows the life of a young woman named Ingrid Dyrendal, who grows up in a small village in Norway. Ingrid is a strong-willed and independent woman who dreams of a life beyond the confines of her village. She falls in love with a young man named Olav, but their relationship is complicated by their differing views on religion and morality. Ingrid struggles to reconcile her own beliefs with the expectations of her community and the influence of her family. As she navigates the challenges of love and faith, Ingrid must also confront the harsh realities of poverty and social inequality. Bojer's novel is a powerful exploration of the intersection of religion, gender, and class in early 20th-century Norway.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
