Tyckte mycket om den här boken och är glad att jag äntligen börjat läsa Lagerlöf. Har dragit mig för att läsa Jerusalem eftersom jag tänkt att den skulle vara tung och ointressant? Glad att bli överbevisad. Tycker Lagerlöf skriver fram personer och natur så fint och uppskattar blandningen av det and
Så vackert skriven. Selma = King
The way it´s written and the speed of the plot make this book completely contemporary.
