Agnesina ispovijed

Agnesina ispovijed

Hannah Kent

Die Handlung des Romans „Agnes' Geständnis“ basiert auf wahren Begebenheiten im Zusammenhang mit dem Schicksal von Agnes, einer jungen Frau, die des brutalen Mordes an ihrem Chef in Island im Jahr 1829 angeklagt wurde.

Nachdem sie zum Tode durch Enthauptung verurteilt wurde, wird Agnes auf eine einsame Farm geschickt, wo sie auf ihre Hinrichtung wartet und mit dem Geständnis gegenüber Diakon Tóti darüber beginnt, was wirklich passiert ist und was dem blutigen Verbrechen, an dem sie beteiligt war, vorausging. Agnes' Geständnis ist ein Roman mit einer faszinierenden Handlung, und zum Lesevergnügen tragen lyrische Beschreibungen isländischer Landschaften und eine getreue Rekonstruktion der rauen patriarchalischen Kultur vom Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts im entlegensten europäischen Land bei. Der Roman wurde in zwanzig Sprachen übersetzt und eine Verfilmung mit Oscar-Preisträgerin Jennifer Lawrence in der Hauptrolle wird erwartet.
