A passage from the book... Jonas (Lauritz Edemil) Lie was one of Norway's most prolific nineteenth century novelists. The son of a town sheriff, he grew up above the Arctic Circle in the city of Tromsø, where his youthful impressions of the wild sea-going life provided material for many of the stories in this collection, first published in 1893. "Weird Tales from Northern Seas" was originally written in Danish, which was the official language of Norway for many centuries. As you might expect from your reading of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen these tales of the Northern Seas are not only weird, but grim. Grimmer than Grimm I should say. The supernatural beings that haunt the shores and depths of the sea are uniformly malignant--including the merfolk. Even a seal "looked so evilly and viciously at him with its bloodshot eyes...that Elias thought he should have died on the spot for sheer fright.", Paperback, Label: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Product group: Book, Published: 2010-02-20, Studio: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform.
