''Love or Pride'' is a novel adapted from the original Swedish work by Annie Wood and published in 1873. The book tells the story of two young lovers, Axel and Gerda, who come from different social classes. Axel is a wealthy landowner, while Gerda is the daughter of a poor farmer. Despite their differences, the two fall deeply in love and dream of spending their lives together.However, their love is put to the test when Axel’s pride gets in the way. He is unwilling to lower himself to Gerda’s social status and insists that she must prove herself worthy of his love. Gerda, on the other hand, is hurt and offended by Axel’s attitude and decides to leave him.The novel explores themes of class, pride, and love as the two protagonists struggle to reconcile their differences and find a way back to each other. Will their love triumph over pride, or will they be forever separated by their social status?Overall, ''Love or Pride'' is a timeless tale of love and the challenges that come with it, told through the lens of Swedish society in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
