Femicide: WINNER OF THE PETRONA AWARD 2023: 1 (Vanessa Frank, 1)

Product Information

As Kaldan starts digging deeper she realises that to tell Kiel’s story she will have to revisit her own dark past. Pascal Engman apresenta-nos uma trama revoltante (infelizmente baseada em situações verídicas) mas, a meu ver, brilhantemente orquestrada. After selling more than 100, 000 Swedish copies of Femicide, the author released another 2 books in the Vanessa Frank series. Set in the fictional yet completely credible location of Doggerland, this three-islands archipelago in the North Sea, reflects Scandinavian, North European and British heritages.

Femicide - Tap the line Femicide - Tap the line

ne pramanas, esu nemažai apie juos domėjusis iki šios knygos, žiūrinėjau jų forumus, youtube vlogus. KALMANN is a beautifully written, absorbing, character-driven tale set in a rich Icelandic landscape. Håkan Nesser's credentials as a superior storyteller are once more in evidence in THE AXE WOMAN, with its impressive narrative arc and peerless characterisation, coupled with a perceptive translation by Sarah Death. The Petrona Award was established to celebrate the work of Maxine Clarke, one of the first online crime fiction reviewers and bloggers, who died in December 2012.

The myriad of narrators may sound perplexing to the reader of this review, but Engman proves that he possesses the required skills to widen the scope of his narrative without losing focus, adding new characters even after the midpoint enriching the complex plot even further. These ‘involuntary celibates’ live in the darkest corners of the internet and are united in their violent misogyny. Começo por referir que, apesar da alusão e breve explicação que o autor fez relativamente a acontecimentos decorridos anteriormente, senti alguma necessidade de ler o 1° livro da série (Não publicado em Portugal) para conseguir perceber e conhecer ainda melhor os protagonistas.

Femicide (1) (Vanessa Frank) by Pascal Engman | Goodreads

Tiesa, turiu nepaprastai milžinišką fobiją žiurkėms, bet vis tiek – manęs net jokie Krucifiksai nepramušė.Kiekvienas skyrius turi savo atskirą, jie maišosi ir painiojasi, jų kokie dvidešimt, jei ne daugiau, o vardų nei norėjau, nei sugebėjau prisiminti.

Femicide (2019) — Pascal Engman

Then she receives a cryptic letter from Anna Kiel, wanted for murder, but not seen by anyone in three years. Dėl to apimama labai daug įvairių nusikaltimo kampų, bet neišvengiamai tas žvilgsnis darosi toks truputį chaotiškas, kaleidoskopiškas.The author cites some quotes from anonymous men -incels- before some chapters, all expressing deep anger towards women and society in general. This quirky Icelandic story quickly draws the reader in, and information is revealed slowly as the mystery is solved. Neišnešė stogo, bet smagiai ir įtraukiančiai susiskaitė ir džiaugiuosi, kad BALTO leidybos namai man tikrai asocijuojasi su kokybiškais ir įdomiais trileriais! BITTER FLOWERS is set in Norway in the 1980s during the heated atmosphere of toxic waste environmental protests. Following the publication of his first book The Patriots, in 2017, he has since become the best-selling Swedish crime novelist of his generation.

The Petrona Award: 2023

Jei trumpai - vyrai, išgyvenantys "priverstinį celibatą", teigia, kad reikėtų panaikinti moterų galimybę laisvai rinktis seksualinį partnerį.

FEMICIDE by Pascal Engman, translated from the Swedish by Michael Gallagher and published by Legend Press. The writing is well informed, the book has a good sense of urban space, and it picks up pace in a satisfying manner. For more information about the Vanessa Frank Series or to talk about our English catalogue contact Nadia on – nadia. This month Saga Egmont will release the English audiobook and ebook versions of the bestselling political thriller Solitaire by Niels Krause-Kjær. But I hope that Femicide can serve another purpose, too, by helping to raise awareness of this growing threat to women everywhere.
