Présentation de l'éditeur

God and Woman Chapter I MARTHA stood under the plank bridge leading to the second story of the barn and watched her two brothers driving a loaded wagon destined for the village. She was a striking figure, with her aquiline nose, flowing white sleeves, dark bodice, and red petticoat. She placed her hands upon her hips and drew up her mouth on one side into a sneer. Nearly everyone was going to the fair. Large Lofoten boats full of young people would soon be out on the fjord, and to-morrow morning they would be in the village. But she she was not good enough. She would have to stay at home on the farm all her life and slave for her brothers. The two middle-aged bachelors, who walked on either side of the wagon, wore black, broadbrimmed hats. Their homespun coats had been thrown on the top of the load, and their blue shirtsleeves were of a material that Martha had woven. It was cheaper to have a sister than a servant. One of them, Ola, stopped and called: Martha! There was no answer. He placed his hand to his mouth and shouted: Take good care of the stock while we re gone. A derisive little laugh sounded from under the plank bridge.
