Summary "Kevät" by Sigrid Undset is a novel that was written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Aksel, who is waiting for his brother in a small Norwegian town, reflecting on his past and troubled familial relationships, particularly his complicated feelings regarding his mother and brother, Torkild. The themes of homecoming, nostalgia, and the impact of family dynamics are likely to be central to the narrative. At the start of the novel, Aksel waits in the rain outside a bank, feeling a mix of anticipation and dread about his return home. As he meets his brother Torkild, they engage in a conversation that reveals their relational distance and the emotional weight of their shared history. Aksel's thoughts drift to childhood memories and the dissolution of their family, hinting at deep-seated regrets and unresolved issues. The interaction between the brothers is marked by a blend of humor and underlying tension, foreshadowing the complexities they must navigate as they reconnect amidst their family's past struggles. The opening sets the tone for a reflective exploration of identity and belonging within the context of family upheaval. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
