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

With Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead  Olga Tokarczuk returns with a subversion of
the noir novel and the magical realist genre. The novel takes place in a remote village in
south-west Poland where Janina Dusezjko  an eccentric woman in her 60s  describes the events
surrounding the disappearance of her two dogs. When members of a local hunting club are
subsequently found murdered  she becomes involved in the investigation. By no means a
conventional crime story  this entertaining novel by one of Europes major humanist writers
(Guardian) offers some thought-provoking ideas on our perceptions of madness  social injustice
against people who are marginalised  animal rights  the hypocrisy of traditional religion  and
belief in predestination. A film based on this novel  titled Spoor  is due for global release
in 2018. Directed by Agnieszka Holland (well known for movies such as Europa  Europa and In
Darkness)  it is Polands nomination for Best Foreign Film at the 2018 Oscars.
