    Synopsis
    "This is the Jerusalem of soul-hunting, this is the Jerusalem of evil-speaking, this is the Jerusalem of lies, of slander, of jeers. Here one persecutes untiringly; here one murders without weapons. It is this Jerusalem which kills men." JERUSALEM by Selma Lagerlf, first woman author to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, is a story of Swedish families caught up in desire and divine exultation. Homestead tradition and religious inspiration, love and duty, come in conflict in this inspirational and gently bittersweet period novel that follows a pilgrimage of the idealist human spirit of Ingmar Ingmarsson and his kin. "Her second great novel, and by most of her followers acknowledged to be her greatest work. Of this book one critic has said: 'Herein she has caught the spirit of the romance and the religious fanaticism of the people and has woven a strange, original love-story around these heroes and heroines of the simple life. The volume closes with the renunciation of home and friends by these religious enthusiasts, and starts them on their pilgrimage to the Holy Land.'...Thus in the story she takes us to the very soul of these serious, plodding peasants beneath whose stolid appearance slumbers such depth of emotion. She makes her readers acquainted with a race who ask themselves, 'Is it right?' rather than 'Is it pleasant?'; who seek the cause of duty rather than the cause of self-advancement. And we see a people who look on very much talk as a vice and who judge a man by his thoughts rather than by his words." -The Book News Monthly, Volume 34, 1915 "It has been called the epic of the Swedish peasant, and portrays with marvelous intuition the religion and superstition, the sense of spiritual mystery coupled with yearning and pious awe, so characteristic of the Swedish country folk." -Current Opinion, Volume 48, 1910 A deeply evocative picture of Victorian Jerusalem, what Lagerlf wrote about has deep resonance today.
