"Le Livre des Légendes" by Selma Lagerlöf is a collection of legends and tales written in the early 20th century. This work blends elements of folklore with Lagerlöf's poetic narrative style, exploring themes of love, loss, and the interconnectedness of human experiences. The collection begins with a reflective piece on the personal significance of receiving the Nobel Prize, suggesting an introspective and heartfelt exploration of the author's journey. The opening of the book introduces the author on a train journey to Stockholm, where she reflects on her past experiences associated with the city, particularly the contrasting emotions tied to her previous visits and the current honor she is about to receive. As she grapples with the joy of her achievement and the sadness of missing her deceased father, she also recalls the many literary influences that have shaped her work, framing her award as a debt she owes to the poets and stories that have inspired her. This establishes a poignant foundation for the stories that follow, hinting at the blend of personal and universal themes present in the subsequent legends.
