The work of one of Norway's most distinguished 20th-century novelists, 'Alberta Alone' forms the final part of the 'Alberta' trilogy, tracing the emotional development of a lethargic and unhappy girl into a self-sufficient woman.
"She writes in a low key, with exact domestic detail, unhurried, lucid and sure. The picture she builds up is unforgettable." --"Daily Telegraph".
Cora Sandel was the author of the semi-autobiographical Alberta trilogy. She was awarded a State Pension for artists by Norway.
