    A hauntingly beautiful, unforgettable Norwegian classic, ripe for discoveryIn the blue dusk of a spring evening, a man is drawn to a lonely, beautiful stranger across a station platform. She follows him home, and over one heady night of wine and cigarettes, recounts to him the devastating story of her life . . .First published in 1947, Nothing Grows by Moonlight tells the haunting tale of one woman's soul-shattering love affair. When an obsessive passion for her high school teacher consumes a small-town seventeen-year-old, her life spirals out of control, giving way to pregnancy, poverty and alienation. Here, darkness and light converge, and unrequited love blooms against the shadows of societal injustices, as she fights for autonomy: over her life, her mind and her body.Captivating, visceral and brimming with emotion, Nothing Grows by Moonlight is a feminist classic of Scandinavian literature, and an uncompromising ode to female desire.

    Et sjakkparti som handler om mer enn brikker på et brett. En død soldat som likevel lever. En tynnkledd jente som renner på kjelke. Et par sko og fingre som stikkes ned i jord. En tidligere hushjelp som ikke blir glemt av datteren i huset. En kvinne som ligner en gråhegre. To brødre som er ute for å stjele poteter. En buss og en ferge som er på vei - hvor?Torborg Nedreaas' noveller hører til blant de ypperste i norsk novellekunst. De har ofte krig som motiv, men handler også om barndom, sosial ulikhet og kjærlighetens pinefulle fortryllelse. Som det heter i novellen «Andrei»: «Det er ikke døden som skiller menneskene fra hverandre».

    Nothing Grows by Moonlight (Av måneskinn gror det ingenting), first published in Norway in 1947, is sure to be talked about. It is a moving novel of love, betrayal, search, and sorrow that introduces a major twentieth-century Norwegian writer, Torborg Nedreaas, to an English-speaking audience. Under the surface of a dramatic story rich in atmosphere lurk social themes that will be of particular interest to American and British readers. At the beginning, a man picks up a woman in a railway station. "It is really very difficult to say what it was that made me notice her. It was probably many things, my own mood, the weather, the emptiness of that particular day." It turns out that she simply wants, desperately needs, someone to talk to. He listens to her story, spellbound, and from that night he is haunted forever by the clear, honest revelation of a broken soul—as the reader will be.The woman describes her hopeless involvement with her teacher and lover, who continues to see her, always to reject her, long after he is married. Obsessively, she returns to situations in which she is abused. Finally, in confronting her past without self-pity, without denying personal responsibility, she realizes how much her self-destructive behavior owes to a capitalistic and patriarchal system that forces women into roles that make them emotionally and economically dependent. A powerful subthemes of Nothing Grows by Moonlight concerns abortion, which Nedreaas sees not as a crime to be punished but as a tragedy that would not be necessary in a more equitable and caring society. But what finally lingers in the reader’s mind is the fully developed image of a woman, buffeted by life, coming to terms with God and man.
