Morbakka. Lagerlöff S.

If childhood is a “writer’s bank account”, then a solid capital was obtained from Morbakka’s estate. The time spent here, the stories heard from the aunts and grandmothers have become a source of impressions for her for life. And the life of the Selma Lagerlöf is a great adventure: it contained a wonderful healing of paralysis, the struggle for election rights for women, loved by society and the Nobel Prize in literature. Her books are still published all over the world, in her honor a crater on Venus is named, and her portrait for a long time adorned a bill of 20 kroons. Adults were terribly alarmed to see a child who could not walk.

"-how will she, poor thing, will live? - they said. - He will not see anything in the world, he will sit in one place. It will not marry, he will not be able to take care of himself. The right word, she will have hard. Everyone treated the sick girl affectionately and sympathetically, and Yuhan and Anna did not mind this. But you can’t completely forget that there are other children. ”
