The 19th-century Norwegian novelist Alexander Lange Kielland wrote the book "Garman and Worse: A Norwegian Novel." The 1880 novel delves into the life of the upper class in the Norwegian town of Stavanger, offering a social critique of the time. The Garman and Worse families, who stand in for the upper class in the small town, are central to the story.
