Beautiful, tragic, uplifting: Løb som floden is a moving coming-of-age novel about female strength and resilience, set against the grandeur of the American landscape.
1948, Iola, Colorado: on a cool autumn morning, 17-year-old Victoria Nash is heading into town with her rickety cart full of the season's last peaches. As she approaches a street corner, a mysterious young man with a soot-streaked face and raven-black eyes stops her to ask for directions. She could have turned left or crossed the road. But she does not. "Go as a river," he whispers.
So begins Shelley Read's remarkable debut about a young woman's turbulent life, from the moment she flees the family farm, betrayed, up into the mountains and the wilderness, until tragedy strikes and she tries to regain everything she has lost. Løb som floden is an epic tale of love and betrayal, motherhood and sisterhood, and above all a sweeping historical novel about a lone woman's struggle to shape her own path through life - and to find love where it is least expected.
