«La vida a qualsevol preu» is the novel by Kristina Sandberg, published by Editorial Les Hores in paperback (596 pages, in Catalan).
Maj, a housewife in 1950s Sweden, spends a few days at a hotel with her family during a holiday that should be happy. Beneath the surface of routine and the era's ideal of life, her world begins to totter. The novel gives voice to the silent women who sustained the welfare state.
Third and final novel of the «Maj» trilogy, translated into Catalan by Pontus Sánchez, originally «Liv till varje pris»; it won the Augustpriset and the Svenska Dagbladets litteraturpris in 2014.
Reading for those interested in contemporary Nordic fiction and in the portrait of 1950s Sweden and the women who built it.
