" Sigrid Undset] should be the next Elena Ferrante." --Slate

A Penguin Classic

Kristin Lavransdatter interweaves political, social, and religious history with the daily aspects of family life to create a colorful, richly detailed tapestry of Norway during the fourteenth-century. The trilogy, however, is more than a journey into the past. Undset's own life--her familiarity with Norse sagas and folklore and with a wide range of medieval literature, her experiences as a daughter, wife, and mother, and her deep religious faith--profoundly influenced her writing. Her grasp of the connections between past and present and of human nature itself, combined with the extraordinary quality of her writing, sets her works far above the genre of "historical novels." This new translation by Tina Nunnally--the first English version since Charles Archer's translation in the 1920s--captures Undset's strengths as a stylist. Nunnally, an award-winning translator, retains the natural dialog and lyrical flow of the original Norwegian, with its echoes of Old Norse legends, while deftly avoiding the stilted language and false archaisms of Archer's translation. In addition, she restores key passages left out of that edition.

Undset's ability to present a meticulously accurate historical portrait without sacrificing the poetry and narrative drive of masterful storytelling was particularly significant in her homeland. Granted independence in 1905 after five hundred years of foreign domination, Norway was eager to reclaim its national history and culture. Kristin Lavransdatter became a touchstone for Undset's contemporaries, and continues to be widely read by Norwegians today. In the more than 75 years since it was first published, it has also become a favorite throughout the world.

Good protein option with good taste
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
These shakes are delicious. There are a few things about them I love. First, they are gluten-free. Next, they are low in sugar. They are also low in calories, and are very tasty. They do not leave an aftertaste like a lot of protein shakes. I do find you need to really shake them well to get a good consistency. They are not clumpy, but sometimes have strands that give them a weird texture. However, this does not happen if you shake them really well. I like to blend mine with fruit, and never have this problem when I do that. They are also really convenient because you can grab them and go. The serving size is perfect too. I would recommend these if you are looking for a low sugar, protein drink.

Incredible, perfect
Flavor Name: Zero Ultra, Size: 16 Fl oz (Pack of 15)
This is definitely the best flavor of Monster! No calories, but full flavor. I can't get enough of this stuff. It does cost a bit, but it is worth getting every once in awhile as a treat. I love it, and I would definitely recommend it. There is a high level of carbonation, so it doesn't go flat too quickly.
