Out Stealing Horses
Per Petterson
We were going out stealing horses. That was what he said,
standing at the door to the cabin where I was spending the summer with
my father. I was fifteen. It was 1948 and one of the first days of July.
Trond's
friend Jon often appeared at his doorstep with an adventure in mind for
the two of them. But this morning was different. What began as a joy
ride on “borrowed” horses ends with Jon falling into a strange trance of
grief. Trond soon learns what befell Jon earlier that day—an incident
that marks the beginning of a series of vital losses for both boys.
Set in the easternmost region of Norway, Out Stealing Horses begins
with an ending. Sixty-seven-year-old Trond has settled into a rustic
cabin in an isolated area to live the rest of his life with a quiet
deliberation. A meeting with his only neighbor, however, forces him to
reflect on that fateful summer.
