The novel features Gabriel Gram, a nearly middle-aged bachelor grappling with an existential crisis and contemplating suicide. Unlike other decadent protagonists, Gram's journey is infused with irony as he navigates his psychological struggles and ultimately seeks solace in a questionable religious conversion. Set in Kristiania (modern-day Oslo), the story vividly portrays Gram's interactions with male friends and the "new women" of Norway, who challenge societal norms yet resist his advances. Garborg's exploration of character depth and societal themes resonates throughout this classic work.
