The story is set in the 17th century, and we follow the life of the Johan Ot, who moves from the Germany to Slovene with the desire for a new beginning. Because of his interests and thinking, he is a very suspicious foreigner. The main themes of the story are the inquisition, witch-haunting, plague, corruption ... and because this is a modernist (late modernism) novel, the story is metaphorical and open to various interpretations of the content.

Had to get in on this. Not so much because I have sooooo many to get to, but because the ones I do have are being neglected and need to be read very, very soon and I've got so many requested that I don't want to get too far behind 😲

Clwojick Yay! Thanks so much for sharing! I‘m hoping to get a bunch of people to join in 👏 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage Yes, thanks for sharing! I need this! 6y
FantasyChick No problem @BarbaraTheBibliophage 😊 I'm sure the more, the merrier! Aaaaaaand my shelf more than doubled overnight @Clwojick so I either need to read these books, or stop requesting. Can't wait to finally get to some of these 😄 6y
Clwojick I know! I woke up to 13 more! I‘ll never learn 😻🙀🙈 6y

Damn you Netgalley! For months you reject all of my selections. Now that I have a bunch of new reads to dig into you give me two new ARCS in one day?!?

Well-ReadNeck So true. 🙃 6y
Jess7 Haha I have 10 waiting for me right now and I‘m overwhelmed! Lol it‘s going to be a busy month or two of reading!! 6y
mjdowens @Jess7 😳. That would give me so much anxiety! I will shut up about my two then😂😂 6y
Jess7 You‘re fine! Lol I didn‘t think I‘d get approved for as many as I have - so I requested a bunch. I‘ve been approved for the majority of the ones I requested and I have 17 pending. Who knows what will happen there. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y
