Selma Lagerlöf
Bannlyst är en bok av Selma Lagerlöf. Det är en mörk berättelse som behandlar kannibalism, hustrumisshandel och första världskriget. Handlingen följer i första hand Sven, som kämpar med det äckel som alla även han själv känner för honom, och Sigrun, som tvingas fly frn sin vldsamme make. Kannibalismen och kriget jämförs med varandra och frgan ställs vilket som är värst. Svaret boken ger är att det är mycket värre att beg ett brott mot en levande, än en som är död.
