Olga Tokarczuk’s subversive, entertaining neo-noir is both gripping and thought-provoking, and anything but a conventional crime novel. 

Translated by Antonia Lloyd-Jones.

In a remote village in southwest Poland, Janina Dusezjko, an eccentric woman in her 60s, describes the events surrounding the disappearance of her two dogs. When members of a local hunting club are subsequently found murdered, she becomes involved in the investigation. Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead is an existential thriller that is also a novel of ideas, asking probing questions about sanity, social injustice, animal rights, hypocrisy, religion & belief in predestination. A deeply satisfying thriller cum fairy tale, Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead is a provocative exploration of the murky borderland between sanity & madness, justice & tradition, autonomy & fate. Whom do we deem sane? it asks. Who is worthy of a voice?

"Extraordinary. Tokarczuk's novel is funny, vivid, dangerous, & disturbing, and it raises some fierce questions about human behaviour. My sincere admiration for her brilliant work." — Annie Proulx
