Jusqu'au bout du monde
Work detail
Jusqu’au bout du monde is the French edition of Sigurd Hoel’s modernist Norwegian novel, originally published as Veien til verdens ende. The work traces several generations of a family, using inheritance, social expectation, and private conflict to reveal how personal choices are shaped by the pressures of class, ambition, and changing cultural life. Hoel’s narrative is known for its psychological sharpness and restrained irony, moving between family history and individual experience rather than relying on simple plot resolution. This edition makes the novel available to French-language readers interested in Scandinavian literature, modern European fiction, and the emotional architecture of family life.
