The island is there. The island is always there

The best novel about life on a Norwegian island in first half of the twentieth century ever written. The book tells the story of the Barrøys, who live on a small island north of the Arctic circle .Nothing much happens; there are births, deaths, coming and goings but the rhythms and cycles of island life take centre-stage and are exquisitely delineated . Quite simply one of the best novels you're never read
