Book Reviews of The Ice Palace (Peter Owen Modern Classics) (Peter Owen modern classics)
Book Review: Best thing ever to come out of Norway
Summary: 5 Stars
The Ice Palace is the most beautiful novel i have ever read. It pushed me to extremes of emotions never thought possible. It is a symbolic and psychological novel about two young and innocent girls who are mutually drawn towards each other. It is a story of loneliness and the need for human contact, which is ultimately severed by the attraction of the Ice Palace and the cruelty of the Norwegian winter. Vesaas won "Nordisk R?ds litteraturpris" (Nordic literature award) for "The Ice Palace".
