Trilogy is Jon Fosse's critically acclaimed, luminous love story about
Asle and Alida, two lovers trying to find their place in this world.
Homeless and sleepless, they wander around Bergen in the rain, trying to
make a life for themselves and the child they expect. Through a rich web
of historical, cultural, and theological allusions, Fosse constructs a
modern parable of injustice, resistance, crime, and redemption.
Consisting of three novellas (Wakefulness, Olav's Dreams, and
Weariness), Trilogy is a haunting, mysterious, and poignant
evocation of love, for which Fosse received The Nordic Council's Prize
for Literature in 2015.
