“An imposing, richly detailed and historically vigilant tale, told by one of the most compelling Danish voices in storytelling and gender history. Vibeke Vasbo leads the reader sure-footedly into a world that is recognizable in all its beauty and cruelty, and yet so very alien.” – Dorthe Nors (shortlisted for the Man Booker International Prize 2017)
“A story of one of the most remarkable women of Anglo-Saxon England. This is not hagiography, it is a triumphal story of a saint’s passion and religious experience. But it is not for the faint-hearted...” – Sir David Wilson (former Director of the British Museum)
This is a gritty, powerful story about the prominent role women played in the spread of Christianity in seventh-century Britain.
Abbess Hild of Whitby was an extraordinary woman living in extraordinary times. In this exquisite translation of the #1 Danish bestselling novel Hildas sang, we are drawn into a world of dark dealings, powerful patriarchy and religious wrangling.
In the political and religious upheavals of the seventh-century British Isles, tensions between the Danish-German invaders and native Celts mirror the power struggles masquerading as religious struggles that reverberate internationally today. In The Song of Hild we are brought face-to-face with the political manoeuvres of conflicting religions, the building of a double monastery, and the power exercised by the Church of Rome.
“a bestseller of great literary quality” – Ekstra Bladet (from a review of the original Danish edition)
