Martin Birck's Youth and Open House in Flanders Reviews
A critical look at Hjalmar Soderberg's Martin Birck's Youth and Open House in Flanders. The critic praises Soderberg's simple direct style and depicts the novel's drab, uneventful life as its strength. The diary of Baroness de La Grange is treated with mixed view, noting romanticized war depictions and questionable American references.
