Summary | In this first novel of the Barrøy trilogy, Ingrid Barrøy and her family are isolated on a Norwegian island that bears her name. But her father envisions building a quay that will end their isolation, and her mother yearns for the island of her youth, and the country faces its own sea change: the arrival of a modern world, and all its uncertainty and violence. |
