JERUSALEM (1901-1902) by Selma Lagerlof, first woman author to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, is a story of Swedish families caught up in desire and divine exultation.

Homestead tradition and religious inspiration, love and duty, come in conflict in this inspirational and gently bittersweet period novel that follows a pilgrimage of the idealist human spirit of Ingmar Ingmarsson and his kin.

The Lowenskold Ring is the first volume of a trilogy originally published between 1925 and 1928. In addition to being a disturbing saga of revenge from beyond the grave, it is a tale of courageous, persistent women, with interesting narrative twists and a permeating sense of ambiguity. The potent ring of the title brings suffering and violent death in its wake, and its spell continues from one generation to the next, as well as into the two subsequent novels in the trilogy.

Selma Lagerlof, first female writer to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, is widely known for her children's books. -Christ Legends- is a delightful collection of tales related to the life of Christ.
