Sinners in Summertime covers the time spent on an island by a group of 4 male and 4 female postgraduates students, and was first published in 1930. They are devotees of Freud and determined not to be "self-deceivers who belong to the previous generation". The tale is a mildly satirical look at the summer spent there as the resolutions for the break fall apart one by one. The characters are very assured of themselves, arrogant, and confident of the way their generation will direct the world. Of course, forced by the claustrophobia of bubble of the island, they are brought face to face with themselves and their relationships, and are all wiser by the end of the book. Anyone who has been through university is bound to recognise their peers, and perhaps themselves, in the personalities of the characters. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Originally published in English in 1930, Sinners in Summertime takes a satirical look at sex, psychoanalysis, and the arrogance of youth. A group of students spend the summer along the Norwegian coast, determined to be honest about the nature of sex, in order to avoid the self-delusions they feel have plagued previous generations. What follows is a complete undermining of all their "enlightened" values, as they find themselves ensnared by romantic mischief. A novel of manners in an erawhen standards where about to break down, Sinners exposes the follyof youthful intellectualism, while also demonstrating the connections that bind all generations. Sigurd Hoel was one of the leading literary and cultural voices of Norway in the first half of the twentieth century. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Fortælleren Frederik, Alf, Johan og Erik tilbringer sommeren på en ø sammen med pigerne, Randi, Sigrid, Erna og Astri. Erik har lånt huset af maleren Ditlef, der til gengæld regner med at sælge nogle malerier til Eriks mor. Ideen er at lave regler, så man undgår fnidder og jalousi. Oh yeah sure. De er alle færdige eller næsten færdige på universitetet, så det her er bare ferie.
De fordeler sig på arbejdshold, Erik og Astri, Frederik og Randi, Alf og Erna, Johan og Sigrid. Pigerne forkæler drengene ved at starte med at give dem fri og lave en superlækker frokost med opdækning udenfor som det første.
Johan er tilhænger af Sigmund Freud og mener at de alle er selvbedragere. Alle undtagen ham selvfølgelig. Og den ældre generation er endnu værre.
