Where will it all end? Pushed by the mysterious owner of the magazine, our narrator may wind up somewhere very strange indeed. Especially when the legendary Voynich Manuscript is involved. Especially if you're eating datura seeds. From a sunrise of automated cars working in silent precision to a possible vampire, she discovers that reality may not be as logical as you think-and that people are both odder and more ordinary as they might seem. From the author of the World Fantasy Award finalist Tainaron, one of the most respected Finnish writers of her generation.Our narrator works as an editor and writer for a magazine specializing in bringing oddities to light, a job that sends her exploring through a city that becomes by degrees ever less familiar. Datura by Leena Krohn, translated by Anna Volmari and Juha Tupasela.
