"Frey and His Wife" by Maurice Hewlett is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative delves into Norse mythology and society, centering around the character of Ogmund Ravensson, also known as Ogmund Dint, who contends with his past and seeks revenge against Halward, the man who once wronged him. The story unfolds in a richly woven tapestry of themes such as honor, vengeance, and the complexities of human relationships set against the backdrop of Viking culture. At the start of the novel, the protagonist Ogmund is introduced as a man with an ambiguous social standing due to his thrall origins. As he embarks on a voyage to Norway, he inadvertently causes a devastating collision with another ship, leading to tensions and conflict with local figures, including Earl Haakon and Halward. After being humiliated by Halward, Ogmund contemplates revenge but grapples with the moral implications of his situation, illustrating a blend of personal conflict and narrative intrigue that invites readers to explore themes of identity, honor, and consequence in a world rife with strife and myth.
