The Viper on the Rock. A novel by Torgny Lindgren. Translated by Hannes Sigfússon.
The Snake on the Rock takes place in the latter half of the 19th century. The story is about the widow Teu and her people who live on a remote rented land and have to pay a high price for their poverty. Here it is told of abuse of power and oppression, which calls for either surrender or revenge. But it is also told of the music that flows from the organ, dulling pain and coloring moments of joy. Torgny Lindgren tells a dark story here but has the joy of storytelling as its guiding principle. The story is full of warmth and unique humor.
