by Martha Ostenso born in Haukeland Norway. 1900-1963

Wild Geese caused a sensation when it was first published in 1925. 
To a generation bred on sentimental escapist 
literature, the idea of a heroine as wild as 
a bronco and as fiery as a tigress was nothing 
short of revolutionary. In the character of 
Judith Gare, Martha Ostenso had painted so 
naked and uncompromising a portrait of human 
passion and need that it crossed all bounds of 
propriety and convention. paperback
