The fourth volume in the popular Very Christmas series brings together classic and contemporary Nordic tales by Hans Christian Andersen, Selma Lagerlöf, August Strindberg, Hjalmar Söderberg, Karl Ove Knausgaard, and Vigdis Hjorth. Festive and reflective in turn, these stories mingle candles, gnomes, elks, and aquavit with the pleasures and peculiarities of the season. This elegant hardcover makes a thoughtful Christmas gift for book lovers, a charming addition to a holiday reading collection, and a literary helping of hygge, the Scandinavian spirit of coziness and contentment.
