Heel lichte vouw in hoek kaft, verder in zeer goede staat.
A genre-defying debut, this queer historical YA centers a wild and reckless trio who fly in the face of small-town traditionfull of compassion, love, and determination to live the lives of their choosing.
Its 1904 on an island just west of Norway, and Asta Hedstrom doesnt want to marry her odious betrothed, Nils. But her mother believes she should be grateful for the possibility of any domestic future, given her single-sided deafness, unconventional appearance, and even stranger notions. Asta would rather spend her life performing in the village theater with her fellow outcasts: her best friend Gunnar Fuglestad and his secret boyfriend, wealthy Erlend Fournier.
But the situation takes a dire turn when Nils lashes out in jealousygravely injuring Gunnar. Shunning marriage for good, Asta moves with Gunnar and Erlend to their secluded cabin above town. With few ties left to their families, they have one shot at gaining enough kroner to secure their way of life: win the villages annual horse race.
Despite Gunnars increasing misgivings, Asta and Erlend intend to prove this unheard-of arrangement will succeed. Asta trains as a blacksmith; Erlend cares for recovering Gunnar. But as race day approaches, the villagers hateful ignorance only grows stronger. With this years competition proving dangerous for the trio, Asta and Erlend soon find they face another equally deadly peril: the possibility of losing Gunnar, and their found family, forever.
