Scandinavian Christmas Festive Tales

Have yourself a truly Scandinavian Christmas: one of visions and prophesies seen in dark, dark woods, of toys and trees come to life, of trolls raising chaos, and of families torn apart -- only to be brought back together by festive cheer. In this collection, classic tales from Hans Christian Andersen and Nobel Prize winner Selma Lagerlof sit alongside modern day stories from Karl Ove Knausgaard and Vigdis Hjorth. The fantastic and the festive combine for your reading delight.
