Description - Jenny by Sigrid Undset
When Jenny was published in 1911, Undset found herself called immoral - 'this is a side of the free, artistic life that the vast majority of citizens would rather not know.' The novel tells the story of Jenny Winge, a talented Norwegian painter who goes to Rome to seek artistic inspiration but ultimately betrays her own ambitions and ideals. After falling into an affair with the married father of a would-be suitor, Jenny has a baby out-of- wedlock and decides to raise the child on her own.
