Ranging from Hans Christian Anderson to Karl Ove Knausgaard have yourself a nordic noel with

visions and prophesies seen in dark dark woods. Of toys and trees come to life. Of trolls
raising chaos and of families torn apart -- only to be brought back together by festive cheer.
In this collection classic tales from Hans Christian Andersen and Nobel Prize winner Selma
Lagerlof blend with modern day stories from Karl Ove Knausgaard and Vigdis Hjorth. Each touch
on the warm and wild spirit of Christmas where the cosiness and contentment of the season can
often give way to the unexpected magical and sometimes mystical. A smorgasbord of strange
literary gifts let A Scandinavian Christmas transport you to a winter wonderland in which
fantasy the fantastic and the festive combine for your reading delight.
