ONE
Winter bites hard in Rogaland. Sodden thatch shudders under its blanket of snow. Within the earthen
barns sheep shiver and huddle, their breath small clouds. A man can lose himself in the drifts between
byre and longhouse, and not be found again until the spring thaw. The pristine shroud that covers him is
deep, but his long sleep is deeper still. In such a season the ice forms black and hard on lake and stream.
For some, it is a good time: merchants whip their horses fast along the gleaming surface of the
waterways, sledges piled high with pelts of squirrel and winter hare, with sealskins and oil and walrus
tusks, with salt fish and fine embroidery. Boys dart across the river on their bone skates, quick as
swallows, voices echoing away to lose themselves among the pale twigs of the winter birches.
