"Dette er ein monumental roman om menneske i kamp mot naturkrefter, overnaturlege makter og makter i deira indre. Boka skildrar ei stormflod som ei natt bryt inn over øya og tek fleire menneskeliv. Her får vi høyre forhistoria til kvar einskild av hovudpersonane, om alt dei har hatt å stri med: religiøse, kriser, kjærleik, sorg og vonbrot. Sterkast er dei som kan godta seg sjølve og livsvilkåra slik dei er"--P. 4 of cover. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

"But one evening it was not evening as usual. The sea was calm, unpleasantly calm, it seemed to them. It came further and further up over the high water-mark"
Then over the following chapters, we get the 'sagas' of some of the characters, their lives and personalities.... Helmer who has turned from organised religion; his disconsolate daughter-in-law, 'The Widow'; the unhappy life of Borghild; and Roald the wonder-child, whose early promise has come to nothing through a series of unwise choices.
Finally the storm breaks, the sea lashes the low-lying isles, but who will come out of this alive? Relationships change as the residents battle the elements.
I probably enjoyed the (often masterly) lifestories over and above the final disaster, but certainly well-written. ( )
