On The Seaboard: A Novel Of The Baltic Islands is a literary masterpiece written by the Swedish author August Strindberg and published in 1913. The novel is set in the picturesque and remote Baltic Islands, where the author himself spent a considerable amount of time during his life. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Tekla, who is torn between her love for two men - the brooding and enigmatic captain of a ship, and the charming and wealthy son of a local landowner. As Tekla struggles to make a decision, she is also forced to confront the harsh realities of life on the islands, including poverty, isolation, and the constant threat of violence from rival factions. Strindberg’s vivid and evocative prose brings the beauty and danger of the islands to life, while also exploring complex themes such as love, betrayal, and the struggle for identity in a changing world. On The Seaboard is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its rich characters, haunting imagery, and profound insights into the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
