Vrouw

The setting in medieval Norway seems to shape much of the characters' lives and morals. I wonder how much of their internal conflicts stem from the societal expectations of the time.

Her choices often seem bound by duty, but I kept wondering if she genuinely believed in her path or if societal pressures made her suppress her desires.

Undset's portrayal of internal struggles is intense and nuanced. I'm curious whether this focus came from her personal beliefs or a desire to explore universal human conflicts.
