Join the La Crescent Public Library for a book talk with Kari Lie Dorer, the editor & co-translator of Muus vs. Muus: The Scandal that Shook Norwegian America.

Oline Muus was many things: Norwegian Immigrant, pastor’s wife, mother, and valued member of her rural Minnesotan Lutheran congregation. But when she sued her husband to recoup her inheritance, she gained notoriety throughout Norwegian America and beyond.

Kari Lie Dorer holds the King Olav V Chair of Scandinavian-American Studies at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN.
