Acclaimed As A Nordic Wild Swans, Marianne's Compelling Story Of Three Generations Of Swedish Women Has Been Translated Into Twenty Seven Languages And Become An International Bestseller.Set Against The Majestic Isolation Of The Scandanavian Lakes And Mountains, This Is More Than A Story Of Grandmother, Mother And Daughter.

Publishers Description: Anna has returned from visiting her mother. Restless and unable to sleep, she wanders through her parents' house, revisiting the scenes of her childhood. In a cupboard drawer, folded and pushed away from sight, she finds a sepia photograph of her grandmother, Hanna, who she remembers as old and forbidding, a silent stranger enveloped in a huge pleated black dress. Now, looking at the features Anna recognises as her own, she realises she is looking at a different woman from the one of her memory. Set against the majestic isolation of the Scandinavian lakes and mountains, this is more than a story of three Swedish women. It is a moving testament of a time forgotten and an epic romance in every sense of the word.
