Osebol : voices from a Swedish village  Cover Image Book Book

Osebol : voices from a Swedish village / Marit Kapla ; translated by Peter Graves.

Kapla, Marit, 1970- (author.). Graves, Peter, 1942- (translator.). Kapla, Marit, 1970- translation of: Osebol. English. (Added Author).

Summary:

Near the river Klaralven, snug in the dense forest landscape of northern Varmland, lies the secluded village of Osebol. It is a quiet place: one where relationships take root over decades, and where the bustle of city life is replaced by the sound of wind in the trees. Marit Kapla has interviewed nearly every villager between the ages of 18 and 92, recording their stories verbatim. What emerges is at once a familiar chronicle of great social metamorphosis, told from the inside, and a beautifully microcosmic portrait of a place and its people.
