Palace of Ice by Tarjei Vesaas, trans. Elizabeth RokkanWilliam Morrow & Co., Inc., 1968 (English translation published in Great Britain in 1966)

Two girls, and a winter landscape: the hard ground, white rime, “steel-ice” and snow that blankets everything. Dream-logic, repetition, “the play between what has been and what is to come” (p 86). Reading this book makes me want to re-read Acts of Levitation by Laynie Browne, which would, I’m sure, make me want to read this book again.
