Taking place during the first half of the sixteenth century, The
Fall of the King tells the story of dreamy, slacking student Mikkel
Thøgersen and the entanglements that ultimately bring him into
service as a mercenary under King Christian II of Denmark. Moving
from the Danish countryside to Stockholm during the execution of
Swedish nobility and finally to the imprisonment of Mikkel and
Christian, the narrative is a lyrical encapsulation of “the
fall”—the fall of country, history, individuals, and nature.
Twice voted as the most important Danish novel of the twentieth
century, The Fall of the King is both an epic depiction of real
events and a complex psychological novel. Half pure narration, half
prose poem, its scenes of brute realism mixed with rhapsodical
passages make it a work of artistic genius.
