The Norwegian flatlands, year 1810 In the Guldberg Saga, we follow Johanna, who is soon to inherit the sheriff’s farm Great Guldberg. Young Johanna, is as strong and hardy as the dark soil in Hedmark county. The sheriff’s farm Great Gulberg, has been in her family for generations, and soon it is hers to inherit. Johanna decided long ago that her childhood friend Gunner, the finest eligible farmer in the village, is just the man her farm needs. When Johanna sets her mind to something – she goes all in! Blossoming into adulthood, she is torn between her bodily lusts and the social norms of her people. If she is to hold her head high on her wedding day, she needs to marry now. Her father however is hesitant to give his blessing. Is Gunner really the right man for his proud and willful daughter? Then one day, the handsome and worldly Christian arrives in the village – complicating Johanna’s life further.
When disaster strikes at Great Guldberg, Johanna needs to be the strong one. She sets her own grief aside, but the burden only gets harder to bear. She begins to sway like a young pine tree in a storm, but she will not break. Her love for the farm is too deep-rooted for that to happen. Gradually Johanna starts to realize that the course she had set for herself is becoming increasingly hard to follow. In the presence of Christian, everyday life is a battle against dangerous and conflicting emotions. Froth covered the horse’s mouth as they put the forest behind them and started the last climb up the mountain. Weathered cottages appeared in the distance. Johanna was drenched in sweat. Would he be there? Or had this horrible race been in vain? Squinting her eyes against the wind, she searched for a sign of life.

De to forfatterne bestemte seg for å snakke med norske kvinner om hvordan de opplever både provosert abort og spontanabort. For noen er opplevelsen uproblematisk, mens andre synes valget er vanskelig – og noen står i en utfordrende livssituasjon. Kv...
