Björnstjerne Björnsen war ein norwegischer Literatur-Nobelpreisträger und Verfasser der norwegischen Nationalhymne. Seine Prosa auf diesem Hörbuch orientiert sich an lebensnahen Charakteren und Begebenheiten, durch welche Handlungen walten und Situationen entstehen, die leicht nachvollziehbar sind und im Prinzip an jedem Ort der Welt sich so oder ähnlich ereignen (könnten).

Selma Lagerlöf ist die erste Frau, die den Literatur-Nobelpreis verliehen bekam. Ihre Prosa besticht durch eine überaus klare und flüssige Sprache, welche Situationen herbeiführt, innerhalb derer die vermittelten Gedanken tiefes moralisches und zwischenmenschliches Verständnis beweisen. Sehr lebensnah und humorvoll mit starkem Gespür für die menschliche Natur ist Lagerlöf in der Lage Charaktere zu schaffen, deren Geschichten berühren und zum Träumen und Nachdenken anregen.
