The Story of Gösta Berling (Unabridged)
Selma Lagerlof
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
In a world draped in the chill of consequence, Gösta Berling, a fallen pastor, seeks solace in a grand estate teeming with eccentric cavaliers. Bound by a Faustian pact, they pledge a year of revelry, exchanging their souls for carefree abandon. Yet, amidst the opulent merriment, whispers of hardship and societal woes pierce their joyous facade. As the seasons turn, Gösta grapples with weighty questions: Can fleeting pleasure mend a shattered spirit? Can true redemption blossom from the ashes of past transgressions? In the face of love, loss, and the complexities of the human heart, "The Story of Gösta Berling" embarks on a poignant exploration of second chances, the burden of choice, and the enduring power of transformation.
