Chapter 3 - Mads Vestrup

Written by Danish Nobel laureate and the father of the modern Danish novel, Henrik Pontoppidan, Realm of the Dead (1912–1916) paints a stark portrait of Denmark in the wake of democracy’s apparent triumph in 1901. Against a backdrop of decaying political ideals, unbridled capitalism, and the corruption of art and the press, the novel delves into the struggles of a young, progressive squire burdened by illness and unfulfilled reformist dreams.
