About this book

Arne, written in 1858, a year after Synnöve Solbakken, is held by many to be Bjørnson's best story. This volume pairs the sixteen-chapter tale, in Rasmus B. Anderson's English translation, with shorter pieces: The Railroad and the Churchyard, Thrond, A Dangerous Wooing, The Bear Hunter, The Father and The Eagle's Nest. Melodies for the songs in Arne were composed by Bjørnson's cousin Rikard Nordraak, who died young in 1865.
