Story
In a remote Polish village, Janina devotes the dark winter days to studying astrology, translating the poetry of William Blake, and taking care of the summer homes of wealthy Warsaw residents. Her reputation as a crank and a recluse is amplified by her not-so-secret preference for the company of animals over humans. Then, a neighbor, Big Foot, turns up dead. Soon, other bodies are discovered, in increasingly strange circumstances. As suspicions mount, Janina inserts herself into the investigation, certain that she knows whodunit. If only anyone would pay her mind....

Story
September 1913. A young Pole suffering from tuberculosis arrives at Wilhelm Opitz’s Guesthouse for Gentlemen in the village of Görbersdorf, a health resort in the Silesian mountains. Every evening the residents gather to imbibe the hallucinogenic local liqueur and debate the great issues of the day: Monarchy or democracy? Do devils exist? Are women born inferior? War or peace? Meanwhile, disturbing things are happening in the guesthouse and the surrounding hills. Someone—or something—seems to be watching, attempting to infiltrate this cloistered world.

Story
Chopin's heart is carried back to Warsaw in secret by his adoring sister. A woman must return to her native Poland in order to poison her terminally ill high school sweetheart, and a young man slowly descends into madness when his wife and child mysteriously vanish during a vacation and just as suddenly reappear. Through these brilliantly imagined characters and stories, interwoven with haunting, playful, and revelatory meditations, Flights explores what it means to be a traveler, a wanderer, a body in motion not only through space but through time.

Story
Una novela única, ligera y honda a la vez, que indaga en las posibilidades del género para hablar sobre el cuerpo, el mundo y las estrategias siempre insuficientes con que intentamos cartografiarlos. Al principio de Los errantes, la narradora esboza un autorretrato que es también una poética: "A todas luces yo carecía de ese gen que hace que en cuanto se detiene uno en un lugar por un tiempo más o menos largo, enseguida eche raíces. (...) Mi energía es generada por el movimiento.

Un anatomist olandez din secolul al şaptesprezecelea descoperă tendonul lui Ahile secţionîndu-şi propriul picior amputat. Inima lui Chopin călătoreşte clandestin spre locul odihnei veşnice, dusă la Varşovia de sora lui preaiubită. O femeie trebuie să se întoarcă în Polonia natală ca să-şi otrăvească iubitul din adolescenţă. Un tînăr simte că o ia razna cînd soţia şi fiul lui dispar misterios în timpul unei vacanţe, apărînd apoi ca şi cum nimic nu s-ar fi întîmplat.

Story
Un medic scoţian din secolul al XVII-lea, ajuns în slujba regelui Poloniei, descoperă o rasă ciudată de copii vegetali. O familie formată din patru femei identice primeşte vizita unui cuplu de bărbaţi similari. Un bătrîn văduv, însingurat şi tipicar, observă într-o dimineaţă că lumea din jur s-a transformat aleatoriu (sau, dacă nu, că şi-a pierdut el minţile). O lume degradată, dintr-un viitor nedefinit, îşi păstrează stabilitatea graţie sacrificiului unui personaj misterios, aparent nemuritor, ce suferă pentru oameni de peste trei sute de ani.

Story
Străveacul şi alte vremi este considerată cea mai reuşită carte a scriitoarei poloneze. Olga Tokarczuk construieşte o vastă alegorie despre forţa distructivă a timpului, povestind optzeci de ani din viaţa locuitorilor unui sat mitic. Sensul său profund este reprezentat de modul în care omul se poate plasa în istorie pentru a se redescoperi. Îmbinînd realismul cu magicul, ignorînd aspectele (post)moderne ale unei societăţi, scriitoarea reuşeşte să dea romanului său o dimensiune universală.

Victimele se dovedesc a fi vînători pasionaţi, iar dacă e să ascultăm opinia bătrînei doamne Duszejko, a cărei voce spune întreaga poveste, animalele sălbatice nu sînt tocmai străine de crime.

Story
Dagens hus nattens hus er en mangetydig og farverig roman om mennesker og menneskeskæbner i grænselandet mellem Polen og Tjekkiet. En magisk fortalt lag-på-lag fortælling hvor personer og historier ligesom lægges oven over hinanden. Med jævne mellemrum møder man f.eks. en middelalderlig kvindelig helgen ved navn Kummernis der som ung fik Kristus ansigt for at undslippe et uønsket ægteskab. En anden genkommende figur er den transseksuelle munk Paschalis som er den der skriver Kummernis historie.

Story
"Rejsende" er en mosaik af fortællinger fra nær og fjern, nutid og fortid. En roman om at flytte sig og skifte opholdssted eller søge nye veje. Om at emigrere over de syv have, lægge sprog og religion bag sig eller bare forsvinde. En rejse rundt i verden og samtidig en rejse ind i kroppen. Romanens mange små historier griber på uforudsigelig vis ind i hinanden og lader hele tiden læseren møde nye, fascinerende sammenhænge - og en mangfoldighed af mennesker.

Im Sommer tummeln sich wohlhabende Städter auf dem Hochplateau an der polnisch-tschechischen Grenze. Im Winter hütet die ehemalige Englischlehrerin Janina Duszejko deren Häuser und widmet sich der Astrologie und der Lyrik von William Blake. Man hält die ältere Dame für verschroben, wenn nicht gar für verrückt, auch weil sie die Gesellschaft von Tieren der von Menschen vorzieht. Dann gibt es einen Toten. Und es bleibt nicht bei einer Leiche .Janina ermittelt auf eigene Faust und scheint der Polizei immer einen Schritt voraus zu sein.

Story
"Bizarre fortællinger" er ti uforudsigelige historier, som kombinerer urovækkende surrealisme med poetisk skønhed. En stavefejl på et henkogningsglas for fatale konsekvenser, i 1600-tallets Polen vækker fundet af mosdækkede plantefolk afsky og fascination, og blandt kinesiske bjergtempler søger en europæisk mand sandheden om sit transplanterede hjerte. Hver af historierne er som et kikhul ind til en virkelighed lige bag vores, hvad enten de foregår i genkendelige rammer eller på steder, som ikke figurer på noget landkort.

1913, Niederschlesien. Am Fuße der Berge steht ein Sanatorium für Lungenkrankheiten. Mieczysław, Student aus Lemberg, hofft, dass eine neuartige Behandlung seine Schwindsucht heilen wird. Wie auf Thomas Manns »Zauberberg« sprechen die versammelten Kranken aus ganz Europa unermüdlich miteinander – mit Vorliebe bei einem Gläschen Likör. Ob es Krieg geben werde in Europa, welche Staatsform die beste sei? Und darüber, dass die Frau des Pensionswirts gerade Selbstmord begangen hat.
