Kristin Lavransdatter Read-Along - EVENT


Hosted by Emily at Evening All Afternoon and Richard at Caravana de Recuerdos

October 1 - December 31, 2009
Emily and Richard are hosting a read along of Kristin Lavransdatter by Sigrid Undset. They write:

Starting in October and continuing through December, we'll be tackling the three volumes of Sigrid Undset's classic Kristin Lavransdatter trilogy, one volume per month.
AND:

We'll be reading the Tina Nunnally translation, which won the PEN/Book-of-the-Month-Club Translation Prize in 2001 and apparently restored a number of the more experimental passages, which had been excised from the original English translation. It's available from Penguin in both omnibus and three individual editions.
Here is the schedule:
  • October: The Wreath (pages 1-291)

  • November: The Wife (pages 295-697)

  • December: The Cross (pages 703-1124)
