An extraordinary novel from Nobel Prize-winner Olga Tokarczuk, the acclaimed Polish author of Flights and Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead.

A woman settles in a remote Polish village. It has few inhabitants, now, but it teems with the stories of its living and its dead. There's the drunk Marek Marek, who discovers that he shares his body with a bird, and Franz Frost, whose nightmares come to him from a newly discovered planet. There's the man whose death, with one leg on the Polish side and one on the Czech, was an international incident. And there are the Germans who still haunt a region that not long ago they called their own. From the founding of the town to the lives of its saints, these shards piece together not only a history but a cosmology.

Another brilliant constellation novel in the mode of her International Booker Prize-winning Flights, House of Day, House of Night reminds us that the story of any place, no matter how humble, is boundless.
