Barba og harra Pál

Jørgen-Frantz setti sær fyri at siga eina søgu um sínar djúpastu kenslur. Søgan skuldi verða bæði lovsongur og harmaljóð á tí mótið, har neistar bresta ímillum lív og deyða. Tað mótið bygdi hann upp í fleiri fláum: einum søguligum botni, einum evni úr eini søgn og sjálvævisøguligum tilfari um kærleika til gentu, hann ikki fekk.Søgn var um prestseinkjuna Beintu, ið dró menn til sín og beindi fyri teimum. Jørgen-Frantz málar nýggja mynd av henni við sterkum erotiskum strokum. Hon tølir alt og øll, men undir hesari tølan býr eingin óndskapur, bara ódarvað náttúra. Søguliga Beinta gerst í skaldsøguni kvinna, sum fyllir menn við ovurhuga, knýtir teir eirindaleyst til sín, heftir teir at sær sum rúsevni. Nýggi presturin kemur í hóslag við prestseinkjuna, og hon verður ein sterkari brandur á himlinum enn Várharra sjálvur. Hetta elvir trega og ástarrús um somu leið.Hesa sálarkvøl verða vit sogin inní í skaldsøguni. Hetta er pínan og rúsurin, lesarin sleingist ímillum....Jørgen-Frantz was determined to tell a story about his deepest emotions. The story was to be both a song of praise and a lament at a crossroad where sparks fly between life and death. He used that crossroad and built it up in many layers: a historical foundation, a legendary tale and the autobiographical content about his love for a girl he could never have. The legendary tale was of the priest’s widow Beinta, who drew men to her only to do away with them. Jørgen-Frantz paints a new image of her with strong erotic strokes. She tempts everything and everyone, but underneath this seduction lives no evil, only unhindered nature. In the book, the historical Beinta becomes a woman who fills men with passion, ties them mercilessly to her and binds them to her like a drug. The new priest has an affair with the widow and she becomes a more powerful force then the Lord Himself. This leads to grief and the fervor of love at the same time.It is through soulful anguish that the book captivates us. The reader is tossed between waves of pain and excitement.
