As Thy Days

Elstad, Anne Karin: Som dine dager er

This novel, which is the second of the four books about Julie, is set in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Norway is plagued by political strife, unemployment and social unrest. Julie is now a farmer's wife, and we follow her through the ups and downs of married life. Both Julie and her marriage face a number of strains, not least because of disagreements with her stubborn and high-handed in-laws.

"She is a first-class storyteller with an enviable gift for enthralling writing; for, as it were, drawing the reader into the story. Few can fail to be impressed by her narrative skill." (Aftenposten)

First published: 1995, Aschehoug Fiction
