She continued: "I share this with my daughter, who has been with me since she was six weeks old on the road with this. "It's the best role of my life being your mum and I promise to continue to be disobedient so you can belong to a world in all your complete wildness as a young woman. I am very grateful for this."
Mona Fastvold has always been drawn to stories about women who lived their lives in the future. Women who dared to imagine how bitter pasts might give way to brighter tomorrows, and did what they could to bring those changes into being. Women - immigrants and settlers - who embodied the utopian potential of a country that has always struggled to live by its own principles, and refused to accept that they were ahead of their time.
