Selection of autobiographical writings by Selma Lagerlf. Tells of her childhood, young adulthood and the family estate Marbacka. Selma was crippled in her childhood and decided early to become a writer. Her family lost the estate, but years later, she was able to purchase it back. Today Marbacka is open to visitors.
Selma Lagerlof (1858-1940) is one of Swedens best-loved storytellers. In 1909, she became the first woman-and the first Swede-to win the Nobel Prize for Literature; later she was the first woman to be inducted into the Swedish Academy.
