Janina spends the gloomy winter months in a secluded Polish hamlet studying astrology, translating William Blake poetry, and tending to the summer houses of rich Warsaw residents. Her not-so-secret love of being with animals above people contributes to her image as a lunatic and a loner. Then Big Foot, a neighbour, appears dead. Soon after, other corpses are found in progressively bizarre situations. With growing suspicions, Janina becomes involved in the inquiry, certain that she knows who is responsible. If only someone would listen to her thoughts...
Drive Your Plough over the Bones of the Dead is a compelling investigation of the hazy borderland between sanity and crazy, justice and tradition, autonomy and destiny. It is a wonderfully gratifying thriller cum fairy tale. Who are we calling sane? Asks it. Who deserves to be heard?
Eleven hours and forty-three minutes.
