DRIVE YOUR PLOW OVER THE BONES OF THE DEAD - OL...

WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE    "A brilliant literary murder mystery." -Chicago
Tribune   "Extraordinary. Tokarczuk's novel is funny  vivid  dangerous  and disturbing  and it
raises some fierce questions about human behavior. My sincere admiration for her brilliant
work." -Annie Proulx  In a remote Polish village  Janina devotes the dark winter days to
studying astrology  translating the poetry of William Blake  and taking care of the summer
homes of wealthy Warsaw residents. Her reputation as a crank and a recluse is amplified by her
not-so-secret preference for the company of animals over humans. Then a neighbor  Big Foot 
turns up dead. Soon other bodies are discovered  in increasingly strange circumstances. As
suspicions mount  Janina inserts herself into the investigation  certain that she knows
whodunit. If only anyone would pay her mind . . .  A deeply satisfying thriller cum fairy tale
Drive Your Plow over the Bones of the Dead is a provocative exploration of the murky borderland
between sanity and madness  justice and tradition  autonomy and fate. Whom do we deem sane? it
asks. Who is worthy of a voice?
