“Kristin, daughter of Lavrans” is one of the best novels by the Norwegian writer Sigrid Undset (1882–1949), for which she was awarded the Nobel Prize. The novel takes place in Norway in the first half of the 14th century.

“The Mistress” is the second part of the trilogy about the fate of Christine. The heroine rebels against patriarchal traditions and, against the will of her father, defends the right to love the chosen one of her heart.
