Summary "Elsket" by Thomas Nelson Page is a novel written in the late 19th century. Set in the picturesque landscapes of Norway, the book explores themes of love, loss, and cultural identity through the lens of a personal narrative. The story revolves around the interactions of an American traveler with a local family, particularly focusing on Elsket, the daughter of Olaf of the Mountain, as they navigate the complexities of love and betrayal. The narrative unfolds as the protagonist, drawn to Norway for fishing and adventure, encounters Olaf and Elsket. As he spends time with them, he learns of Elsket's delicate health and the poignant history that binds her to a tragic love story involving Cnut and Harold, two young men vying for her affection. As their stories intertwine, the depth of Elsket's sorrow and Olaf's unwavering love for his daughter culminate in a heart-wrenching climax that reveals the fragility of life and relationships. In the end, the book leaves readers with a profound sense of the enduring nature of love and the impact of loss on the human spirit. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
