Somewhat difficult to read. E-text prepared by Timo Ervasti and Tapio Riikonen "Magnhild: Kertomus" by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a picturesque Nordic setting, where we are introduced to the titular character, Magnhild, who navigates a series of personal traumas and societal expectations after surviving a devastating childhood event. The novel explores themes of fate, identity, and the quest for personal meaning, as Magnhild grapples with her past and future aspirations. The opening of the novel establishes a vivid landscape filled with high mountains and a winding valley, setting the tone for a reflective journey. We meet a traveling passenger who observes a young coachgirl, Rönnaug, who calls for Magnhild, hinting at their connections and past. As the passengers make their way, conversations reveal tragic elements of Magnhild’s backstory—she is the sole survivor of a catastrophe that claimed her entire family. This somber revelation leaves the passengers in thought, and as the narrative progresses, it captures the emotional undercurrents of loss and longing that will shape Magnhild’s life and decisions. The beginning sets a contemplative atmosphere that invites readers to delve into Magnhild's complex character and her unfolding story.
