Eidi: The Children of Crow Cove

(2) 4-6 Translated by Kathryn Mahaffy. In this companion to The Crow-Girl, Eidi's blended family becomes too crowded after a new baby is born. She decides to avoid the situation and live with her friend Rossan, earning her keep by carding and spinning wool from his sheep. Bredsdorff's crystalline prose evokes the austere beauty of the Danish coastal setting and shapes a strong, independent main character.
