Pulitzer Prize winner and bestselling author Jane Smiley's The
Greenlanders" is an enthralling novel in the epic tradition of the
old Norse sagas.
Set in the fourteenth century in Europe's most farflung outpost, a
land of glittering fjords, blasting winds, sun-warmed meadows, and
high, dark mountains, The Greenlanders" is the story of one
family-proud landowner Asgeir Gunnarsson; his daughter Margret,
whose willful independence leads her into passionate adultery and
exile; and his son Gunnar, whose quest for knowledge is at the
compelling center of this unforgettable book. Jane Smiley takes us
into this world of farmers, priests, and lawspeakers, of hunts and
feasts and long-standing feuds, and by an act of literary magic,
makes a remote time, place, and people not only real but dear to
us.
