This is Olga Tokarczuk's masterpiece, now a theatrical tour-de-force led by the great Pamela Rabe.
Janina Duszejko, a woman of retiring age, lives quietly in a remote village. But one winter, men start being murdered in her district, and nobody seems to have an answer. Like a Polish Miss Marple, Mrs Duszejko takes it upon herself to work out exactly what's going on. The problem is, the more she looks, the more she realises everything is intertwined - destinies foretold in the stars, secrets in the poems of William Blake, and, most vitally, clues found in the kingdom of animals.
A whodunnit which takes astonishing turns, a provocative story of animals, humans and the spaces in between, and one of the most memorable characters of modern literature.
