Tollak awaits his imminent death on a farmstead, next to the rusting sawmill that provided for him almost his entire life. His beloved wife, Ingeborg, disappeared twenty years ago. Of his children, only his son occasionally visits; his daughter left for the capital, and that's all. And only the dull-witted Oddo, whom Tollak took from his abandoned mother as a child, has been mending nets in the barn for an unknown amount of time. Tollak is a man of turbulent passions and harsh reactions; he judges the new world harshly, forgives himself for his drunkenness, and seeks reconciliation with his past. But today, all the children will gather together, because Ingeborg asked Tollak to explain himself to them before she died. Tore Renberg is well known to Russian readers for his novels
"You Are So Bright" and "Charlotte Isabel Hansen," which was adapted into the film "I'm Flying Alone." The novel "Tollak, Which Ingeborg" won all the national awards and has been translated into nearly two dozen languages.
