As a work of fiction, I thought it illustrated very well the collective denial by family members of a traumatic event and the subsequent loneliness and isolation the victim feels with this 'taking of sides' and suppression of voice. Bergljot chooses to have minimal contact with her family until the contents of her parent's will forces her to re-engage with them
Moderate: Incest, Adult/minor relationship, Death of parent, and Gaslighting
Minor: Rape
