There, Ally begins to discover her roots – and how her story is inextricably bound to that of a young unknown singer, Anna Landvik, who lived there over a hundred years before, and sang in the first performance of Grieg’s iconic music set to Ibsen’s play ‘Peer Gynt’. There are some hits (The Midnight Rose) , and some that are a nightmare (The Orchid House, I'm lookin' at you). There, Ally begins to discover her roots – and how her story is inextricably bound to that of a young unknown singer, Anna Landvik, who lived there over a hundred years before, and sang in the first performance of Grieg's iconic music set to Ibsen's play 'Peer Gynt'. It’s a little like playing with a Rubik’s Cube – one line fits, but then another falls out of place. After reading this book I won’t be reading any of the other books, this was super disappointing and way too long.My friends at Cappelen Damm, my publishing house, were instrumental in introducing me to the people I needed to speak to. When I saw that he was nice to his mom, I thought, maybe I should give him the benefit of the doubt.
