Summary/Abstract: The dystopian novel, Istoria albinelor written by Norwegian author Maja Lunde, presents a fiction with a terrifying potential to become reality in the near future. Initially written as a standalone book, Istoria albinelor becomes the first pillar in the tetralogy called The Climate Quartet. The second one, Blå (2017) and the third, Przewalski’s hest (2019) are both new-born international bestsellers. The fourth is yet a mystery. What the novels have in common is the multivalent perspective when it comes to main characters, periods and places.
