Vjetar s planine

Trygve Gulbranssen

The Wind from the Mountains (1934), the first part of the Bjørndal trilogy, is an epic saga set in the Norwegian mountains, imbued with the spirit of patriarchal life and conflict with nature. The novel follows the Bjørndal family, whose patriarch, Dag, e

The story begins with Dag Bjørndal, a strict landowner whose life is marked by struggles with rival families and inner demons. His youth, filled with violence and revenge, left its mark on his soul, but also on the fate of his son, young Dag, who inherits his father’s strength, but also the burden of the past. The novel interweaves stories of family conflict, love and loss, as the Bjørndals struggle to preserve their heritage in a harsh environment. Key characters, such as Theresa, bring warmth and tenderness to the story, while nature – forests, mountains and storms – becomes almost a living character, symbolizing the relentless struggle for survival.

Gulbranssen’s style, steeped in national romanticism and the dialect of eastern Norway, creates an authentic depiction of rural life. The novel explores themes of honor, remorse and reconciliation, as Dag faces the consequences of his actions. The rich descriptions of the landscape and the emotional depth of the characters make The Wind from the Mountain a powerful story of the strength of family and the struggle with the inevitability of fate.
