Invisible Secrets

By: Elite, George

""It's safe", her father shouts in her ear. But she doesn't hear. Neither does he. He shouts to her that she must feel with her body that the island is immutable, even if she trembles, even if the sky and the sea are turned upside down, an island never disappears, even if it wobbles, it remains firm and eternal, chained in the globe itself Yes, it is almost a religious experience that he wants to share with his daughter at this moment, he must teach her this fundamental principle: an island never sinks. Never." Ingrid grew up on a tiny island in northern Norway at the start of the 20th century. The sea is his adventure. Between fishing, storms and poverty, it owns the seasons, the birds and the horizon. Les invisibles is a novel about a family and children forced to grow up quickly facing the elements, facing a life ruled by the simplest needs. It is a novel about fatality and the resources that men deploy in the face of the harshness of the world. The laconic narration, veined with poetic flamboyance, accumulates by subtle touches the components of an ever more lively and profound picture, rich in metaphors. And then there are the lives of these men and children who, under the pressure of nature and time, become destinies. And it is Roy Jacobsen's talent to make "the invisible" visible. veined with poetic flamboyance, accumulates by subtle touches the components of an ever more lively and profound picture, rich in metaphors.
