In fourteen expansive essays, Nors traces the history, geography, and culture of the places she visits while reflecting on her childhood and her family and ancestors ties to the region as well as her decision to move there from Copenhagen. She writes about the ritual burning of witch effigies on Midsummers Eve; the environmental activist who opposed a chemical factory in the 1950s; the quiet fishing villages that surfers transformed into an area known as Cold Hawaii starting in the 1970s. She connects wind turbines to Viking ships, thirteenth-century church frescoes to her mothers unrealized dreams. She describes strong waves, sand drifts, storm surges, shipwrecks, and other instances of nature asserting its power over human attempts to ignore or control it.</p><p>Through a deep, personal engagement with this singular landscape, <em>A Line in the World</em> accesses the universal.
