It was a hard book to get into but it was good after all. For a Nobel prize in literature it is a surprisingly good read.

Удивительные у меня сформировались отношения с этой книгой. Ее было очень легко и увлекательно читать, даром что здесь собраны все мои триггеры из Средневековья. Это отлично написанный роман, и я вполне понимаю, почему Сигрид Унсет получила Нобелевскую премию по литературе. Но вот спросите меня, хочу ли я продолжать трилогию, и я затруднюсь с ответом. Не уверена.

Singrid Undset is a masterful writer. The way she draws you in to the emotions that Kristin is feeling is amazing. I feel the passion and then the guilt and weight of the sin. This is not a feel good book by any measure. But, it is a worthwhile read. I cannot read the rest of their series fast enough. I’m waiting for the consequences and hopefully the redemption of the Kristin and her husband.
