In the second installment of the "Kristin Lavransdatter" trilogy, the narrative centers on Kristin as she navigates the complexities of adult life, including marriage and motherhood, in 14th-century Norway. Confronted with the challenges of raising a large family and managing an estate alongside her impulsive husband, Kristin grapples with her past sins and the demands of loyalty. This richly detailed portrayal not only highlights her personal growth but also offers a vivid glimpse into medieval society. The edition features a translation by Charles Archer on premium acid-free paper.
