Financial difficulties led to the loss of the house, but Lagerl f was later able to buy it back, rebuild and make it the centre of her world. The book \u003cem\u003eM rbacka, \u003c\/em\u003ethe first part of a trilogy written in 1922-32, can be read as many different things: memoir, fictionalised autobiography, even part of Lagerl f's myth-making about her own successful career as an author. It is part social and family history, part mischievous satire in the guise of innocent, first-person child narration, part declaration of filial love.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSelma Lagerl f (1858-1940) quickly established herself as a major author of novels and short stories, and her work has been translated into close to 50 languages. Most of the translations into English were made soon after the publication of the original Swedish texts and have long been out of date. This Norvik Press series, 'Lagerl f in English', provides English-language readers with high-quality new translations of a selection of the Nobel Laureate's most important texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Selma Lagerl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1909408298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781909408296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Norvik Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.57d","brand":"Selma Lagerl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125538877695,"sku":"9781909408296","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_51474331-79e4-4615-ace1-78f156246912.jpg?v=1687443196","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mrbacka-selma-lagerlf-9781909408296","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
