Set in19th-century Norway, this novel tells the story of a beautiful, eccentric, and unpredictable woman who bewitches everyone she meets. At the age of five, Dina unwittingly causes her mother’s death. Blamed by her father and banished to a farm, she grows up untamed and untaught. Her guilt becomes her obsession; her unforgiving mother haunts her every day. When she returns home, it is only Dina’s tutor who can tame her by reaching her through music. Married off at sixteen to a wealthy landowner, Jacob dies under odd circumstances and Dina - after a period of trauma during which she is mute - runs his estate with an iron hand. But she still wrestles with the unappeased ghosts of both Jacob and her mother, until one day a mysterious stranger - a Russian wanderer - enters her life.

At the heart of this exhibition is a selection of Andersen’s diaries and almanacs, offering a fascinating glimpse into the thoughts and writings of a great figure in world literature. These documents contain keys to the writer’s life and works, and the indexes of names, works, subjects and places contained in the published versions provide an invaluable means of approach to the time in which he lived. They are also worth putting on show, for the paper, ink, and Andersen’s delicate handwriting require an attention that is more than mere reading. This book should give you a better understanding of this genius who has brought so much joy to the world’s children of all ages. An exquisitely bound book with beautiful end papers and a fine full figure sepia tone photograph of Andersen in formal attire in a special setting.

Spanning almost a century of writings, from the emigration and settlement of Icelanders in the early 1870’s to their assimilation into a North American culture in the 1950’s and 1960’s, this collection of short stories and poems demonstrates a wide variety of styles, from the romantic to the realist and symbolic. Taken collectively, the works stand in their own right as socio-historical documents, and you hear the voices of women’s developement in the early history of Western Icelandic settlement and literary history. This would be a good resource for a women’s studies course.
