Smilla osjeća snijeg

Smilla osjeća snijeg

Peter Hoeg

Smilla Jaspersen is the neighbor of a little Greenlander who, by all indications, accidentally fell from a snow-covered roof.

The police would like to close the case, but Smilla, a scientist who studies the nature of ice, will conclude by analyzing the boy's traces that the fall was not accidental, and thus her little private investigation will begin. Connecting a series of seemingly unimportant details, Smilla will try to uncover the connection between the once powerful company Kriolit, the law firm Hammer & Ving, the professor of Eskimo languages ​​Dr. Licht and the respected state forensic pathologist Johannes Loven. The search for the truth will lead Smilla through a network of deception, lies and violence back to the eternal ice of Greenland, all the way to the very heart of the mystery. Thoughtful and finely woven sentences, with intelligent plot twists in which every detail represents a cunningly left clue that the reader can follow and, together with the main character, arrive at a logical, but completely unexpected solution, make this unusual book an unprecedented literary pleasure.
