Spring Night

First published in Norway in 1954, this lyrical novel is about an abrupt change from childish dreams and safety to grown-up responsibilities and happiness. On the surface it deals with what happens to two youngsters left for a night alone on their parents' farm, but like The Ice Palace and other great novels by Vesaas, the themes are far deeper: How difficult the road is from I to you or we, even when love is involved.
