The first new English translation in more than one hundred years of the Swedish Gone with the Wind

A defrocked minister, Gösta Berling finds a home at Ekeby, an ironworks estate that also houses and assortment of eccentric veterans of the Napoleanic Wars. His defiant and poetic spirit proves magnetic to a string of women, who fall under his spell in this sweeping historical epic set against the backdrop of the magnificent wintry beauty of rural Sweden.

Über den Autor
Selma Lagerlöf was a pioneering Swedish author, celebrated for her unique storytelling and profound connection to Swedish folklore. She made history as the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1909 and was also the first woman admitted to the Swedish Academy in 1914. Lagerlöf's debut novel, Gösta Berling's Saga, marked the start of her successful literary career. Her works often combine elements of the supernatural with deep emotional and moral exploration. She is known for her ability to transform ordinary stories into profound tales, full of imagination and humanity. Many of her works, including The Wonderful Adventures of Nils, emphasize themes of personal growth, respect for nature, and the importance of kindness. Lagerlöf's writing continues to resonate due to her rich blend of realism and fantasy, and her love for Sweden's landscapes. Her impact on literature, both in Sweden and internationally, remains significant, as her stories continue to inspire readers with their timeless messages of empathy and transformation.
