Kristin Lavransdatter By Sigrid Undset Translated by Tiina Nunnally


WOW-what a saga!  I was worried that this might not hold my attention, but it is a stunningly told tale of the life of the title character in Norway during the 14th century.  This translation is absolutely gorgeous.  Originally published as three separate novels in the early 1900's, this new edition with new translation contains all three novels.  Don't be daunted by the 1100+ pages-you'll sail through it, and be enraptured by Kristin and the other amazing characters!
