Publisher's Synopsis
This novel is set in the mythical village of Primeval in the heart of Poland, which is populated by eccentric, archetypical characters. The village, a microcosm of Europe, is guarded by four archangels, from whose perspective the novel chronicles the lives of Primeval's inhabitants over the course of the feral 20th century.
We Say
My favourite book from my favourite contemporary author, her use of magic realism and style is spell-binding. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since I read it last summer
