Crisis is the story of a death and a rebirth: the death of an imposed, guilt-inducing, and empty faith; and the birth of a vital authenticity that includes the acceptance of one's own desire and existential uncertainty. Published in 1934, this autobiographical novel addresses the existential, religious, and sexual crisis of a young woman, Malin Forst, the alter ego of Karin Boye herself, one of Sweden's most important and beloved authors. The protagonist undergoes a spiritual crisis when her religious faith collapses. Malin had lived under Christian morality and the rigid codes of Pietism, but she begins to feel that this faith has become sterile. The book also reflects the awakening of her repressed sexuality, with a clear first-person dimension to Boye's homosexuality.
