Tokarczuk's narrator is Janina, a retired engineer in a remote Polish village who translates Blake and believes animals are taking revenge on hunters. When men start dying, the book becomes a thriller that is really a philosophical argument. It is funny, angry and strange, and its voice stays with you.
