Description
The Northern Light is a novel written by E. Werner and published in 1891. Set in the late 19th century, the story follows the life of a young woman named Gertrude, who is forced to leave her home in England and move to Norway with her mother. Gertrude's father has died, leaving the family in financial ruin, and her mother hopes to find a wealthy husband for her daughter in Norway.Gertrude is initially unhappy in Norway, but she soon falls in love with a young Norwegian man named Olaf. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Olaf's family is opposed to their marriage, as Gertrude is not Norwegian and does not come from a wealthy family.As Gertrude struggles to find her place in Norwegian society and win over Olaf's family, she becomes involved in a political movement that seeks to promote Norwegian independence from Sweden. The novel explores themes of love, politics, and cultural identity, and provides a vivid portrayal of life in Norway during the late 19th century.Overall, The Northern Light is a captivating historical novel that offers a unique perspective on Norwegian society and politics at the turn of the century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
