Drive Your Plow over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk

dark mysterious slow-paced

5.0

absolutely LOVED this. such a unique book in every sense - this relationship between narrator and reader is probably one of my favourites i've ever read. Duszejko is both so dryly funny and intensely emotional it's so so brilliant and i hope it's okay that i love her because i so so do. i did find a couple of tangents lost my attention but it was always gained back very quickly and i loved all the detours it took to astrology, the Polish landscape, insane information about specific beetles, all of it. so bleak and honestly heartwarming and hilarious at the same time, perfect intro to some Polish literature
