Product Overview
Into the lonely life of the relentlessly introspective Doctor Glas steps the young and beautiful Helga Gregorius, plagued by the attentions of her ageing husband.
Thus begins the struggle between thought and action that drives the plot of Hjalmar Sderbergs most celebrated novel, as Doctor Glas starts to weigh a deed that would liberate Helga, and perhaps himself too.
Hjalmar Sderberg (18691941) is considered one of the greatest writers in the Swedish language. Doctor Glas, originally published in 1905, was his third novel. This is a new English translation of the work.
