Brand
A young priest returns to the fjord village of his birth preaching a creed of all or nothing, and refuses every compromise his parishioners, his mother and his wife beg of him. He builds a new church on the strength of it and then finds the building too small for what he means. Written in rhymed verse for readers rather than for the stage, it sold out edition after edition on publication and made its author's name across Scandinavia.
