In a series of poetic sketches, Lydia tends to the animals in her community, spends time with her aging parents, and falls in love. Despite an increasing need for closer human contact that begins to encroach on her contented solitude, ultimately it is Lydia's satisfaction with her inner life that speaks of an elegance and hope often lost in these clamoring times.</p> <p>Winner of the Brage Prize, the most prestigious award in Norwegian Literature, <i>The Loneliness in Lydia Erneman's Life</i> is a quiet, beautiful exploration of solitude and how we relate to other beings.
