| Abstract
|
:
|
The nineteenth-century Danish writer, Steen Steensen Blicher deserves to stand alongside the great writers of world literature, from Boccaccio to Maupassant, and this selection of his work will make a group of his most important stories available in the English-speaking world. These reveal not only the writer himself but the country and culture which formed him in the early years of the nineteenth century.
|
|
|
:
|
Although his subject matter is deeply and truly that of Denmark, his account of human relationships is timeless and he deploys the true storyteller's art.
