The unseen

Jacobsen, Roy 1954- (author.). Bartlett, Don, (translator.). Shaw, Donald, (translator.).

Summary: "Islanders are never afraid, if they were, they wouldn't be able to live here. Born on the island that bears her name, Ingrid Barrøy's world is circumscribed by storm-scoured rocks and the moods of the sea by which her family lives and dies. But her father dreams of a bridge, and her mother longs for her own childhood island, and Norway faces its own sea change: the advent of a modern world and its attendant unpredictability and violence. Brilliantly translated into English by Don Bartlett and Don Shaw, The Unseen is a profound exploration of family, resilience, and fate."-- Provide by publisher.
