The trilogy, however, is more than a journey into the past. Undsets own lifeher familiarity with Norse sagas and folklore and with a wide range of medieval literature, her experiences as a daughter, wife, and mother, and her deep religious faithprofoundly influenced her writing. Her grasp of the connections between past and present and of human nature itself, combined with the extraordinary quality of her writing, sets her works far above the genre of "historical novels." This new translation by Tina Nunnallythe first English version since Charles Archers translation in the 1920scaptures Undsets strengths as a stylist.
