📖 The Scoop

Alexander Kielland (1849-1906) was a Norwegian novelist and short story writer. He is considered one of "the four great ones" of 19th century Norwegian literature, and was perhaps the foremost prose stylist of his day. He combined elegant style and brilliant wit with reformatory aims and held the view that literature should work as a means of social criticism. This book is an early volume of 10 of his short stories, and also includes an extensive introduction about Kielland?s life and work. The story titles are: "Pharoh", "The Parsonage", "The Peat Moor", "Hope's Clad in April Green", "At The Fair", "Two Friends", "A Good Conscience", "Romance and Reality", "Withered Leaves", and "The Battle of Waterloo."

Genre: Fiction / Short Stories (single author) (fancy, right?)
