Astrid and Veronika

Read Astrid and Veronika Storyline:

With extraordinary emotional power, Linda Olsson’s stunningly
well-crafted debut novel recounts the unusual and unexpected friendship
that develops between two women. Veronika, a young writer from New
Zealand, rents a house in a small Swedish village as she tries to come
to terms with a recent tragedy while also finishing a novel. Her arrival
is silently observed by Astrid, an older, reclusive neighbor who slowly
becomes a presence in Veronika’s life, offering comfort in the form of
companionship and lovingly prepared home-cooked meals. Set against a
haunting Swedish landscape, Astrid & Veronika is a lyrical
and meditative novel of love and loss, and a story that will remain with
readers long after the characters’ secrets are revealed.
