The previous volumes of this trilogy have been widely acclaimed as being among the masterpieces of contemporary literature. In this third part, which stands as a novel on its own, Alberta, now mistress to Sivert, a Norwegian artist, is living in Paris with their small son. While Sivert is involved in a liaison with a Swedish painter, Alberta falls in love with Pierre, a writer who has just returned from the First World War. After a period of conflict Sivert and Alberta return to Norway, and there Alberta's self-realisation becomes complete. With subtlety and insight, Cora Sandel depicts the gradual corrosion of a relationship, against the background of the aftermath of the Great War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eNew | Mint Condition | Dispatch same day for order received before 12 noon | Guaranteed packaging | No quibbles returns\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68055386390816,"sku":"USED0720613140","price":10.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61GShFfHSjL.jpg?v=1793318383","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-gb\/products\/alberta-alone-0720613140-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
