Alberte og Jakob (Alberte-trilogien #1) lydbok

Alberta and Jacob (1926), the first volume of the trilogy, introduces Alberta Selmer, one of the 20th century’s great anti-heroines: Imaginative and intelligent, trapped in a stiflingly provincial town in the north of Norway, she is a misfit whose only affinity is for her extrovert brother Jacob. Her mother makes no attempt to conceal her disappointment at her daughter's social failings, and Alberta is desperate to get away. When Jacob escapes to a life at sea, Alberta's rebellion, though muted and ineffectual, begins to grow.

Cora Sandel’s books about Alberta thematize longing for freedom and a woman’s yearning to carve out a room of her own in the early 20th century. The trilogy has remained one of the most powerful and vivid portrayals of a woman in World literature. Through their resounding humanity, the books belong amongst the great, timeless classics. One of their greatest qualities are how they invite immersion. Through almost a century, countless readers have identified themselves with Alberta.
