Kristin Lavransdatter by Sigrid Undset (a Catholic convert and the first woman to receive the Nobel Prize for literature) reappears every year because I am profoundly touched by Kristin's birth-to-death tale, which explores a universally valid human experience set in a late medieval context that can scarcely be imaginable today. Though beautifully thought through, deeply serious and enormously intelligent, it demonstrates that there is a reason why Freud and Kafka belong to one culture, and Ibsen and Sigrid Undset belong to another. Sigrid Undset wrote Kristin Lavransdatter a year before she was baptized a Catholic, but she had probably been intellectually converted to the Catholic faith by the time she wrote her masterpiece. |
