Overview: Lose yourself in this tumultuous Swedish family saga, introduced by Sarah Moss (‘a masterpiece’)
Judit is stubborn and singular, distant and unyielding. She is called Queen.
Her realm is a windswept farm on a misty Swedish coastline.When she is nine, her dying mother places Judit’s brother Viktor in her arms, and the two are bonded for life. Together with their silent brother, Albert,they forge a precarious family. But Judit has her secrets; she dreams amidst the salt spray. And when Viktor emigrates to America, the ground beneath her feet forever shifts.
Translated into English for the first time, Queen (1964)is a visionary family saga: a mythic epic in miniature, mystical and anarchic. One of the greatest Swedish novelists of all time, Birgitta Trotzig casts another worldly light across the souls of her characters – and her readers.
