Marta Oulie, written in diary form, intimately documents the inner life of a young woman disappointed by the conventions of marriage and longing for passion. Set in early twentieth century Kristiania (now Oslo), this is an incomparable psychological portrait of a woman whose destiny is defined by the changing mores of her day--as she descends into an ever-darker reckoning.
