Περιγραφή για The Woman at 1,000 Degrees: The International Bestseller Hallgrimur Helgason Oneworld Publications

  \'Incredibly funny, incredibly insightful and incredibly moving\' Fiona Mozley, author of Hot Stew A darkly comic and explosive tale of a world at war and one island girl\'s struggle to survive Eighty-year old Herra Björnsson lies alone in her garage waiting to die. Oh, she has two weeks left, maybe three - she has booked her cremation appointment, at a blistering 1,000 degrees, so it won\'t be long. But until then she has her cigarettes, her laptop, a World War II grenade, and her memories to sustain her.  One of the most original narrators in literary history, Herra takes readers with her on a dazzling ride of a novel as she reflects - in a voice by turns darkly funny, poignant and always, always smart - on the mishaps, tragedies and turns of luck that shaped her life. And with a bawdy, uncompromising spirit, she has survived it all. As hilarious as it is heartbreaking, Hallgrímur Helgason tells the deeply moving story of a woman swept up by the forces of history.  Σελίδες: 464, Έτος Έκδοσης: 0204, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
