Description
After the death of her sister to a preventable childbirth complication, Sólveig Pétursdóttir is determined to not only do better for women, but to rise above the stigma of illegitimacy she inherited. She completes her three months midwifery training and in the autumn of 1881 is posted to a remote community in the north-west of Iceland. There she is housed with Councillor Albert and his family but helping women doesn't prove easy, and she must first win the trust of a community steeped in poverty and superstition.Slowly she finds her place earning her the respect and friendship of her peers as she battles with not only reaching birthing mothers in the harsh and unforgiving landscape, but also the temptations of the heart.Spanning a dark period in Iceland's history known as the 'dire years', Mother of Light explores the cornerstones of the human experience - birth, death, love and belonging during a time when man lived by the seasons, not the clock and when survival sometimes meant forsaking the heart.
