The book describes the life of a village community in Norway, where approximately 70 people, by ordinary standards called “mentally retarded”, and the same number of “normal” people, united into families and try to create a meaningful life together. If you live in such a community for a few months, as Nils Christie did, or even half your life, you feel the healing humanity rejected by our ever-busy, commercially obsessed world. Anyone who, in our one-sided intellectual times, reveres Dostoevsky’s “The Idiot” cannot do not touch the beautiful, full of love description of Prince Myshkin. What can touch us so uniquely in this human form? Rare moral qualities, purity of heart that resonates in our hearts? And we can finally ask ourselves, completely in the spirit of Dostoevsky’s great novel, which of us is more human, which of us is healthier mentally and spiritually?
