Kim Leine's THE PROPHETS OF ETERNAL FJORD was a whisker away from carrying off the 2017 International DUBLIN Literary Award, the world's biggest literary prize for a single book. Now the manuscript of its companion is delivered - the translation by Martin Aitken, RED MAN/BLACK MAN, to be published in the UK next year by @picadorbooks A huge and sprawling epic of 18th century Greenland. Visceral, gripping and poignant. And totally bonkers. #kimleine #martinaitken #interlingualzoo #picador #gyldendal #theprophetsofeternalfjord #rødmandsortmand #InternationalDublinLiteraryAward #dklit #translation #loveyourtranslator #bookstagram #instabook #booksofinsta https://www.instagram.com/p/B18MUqVhpbJ/?igshid=1aieyamxege33

@kimleine er blandt de sidste 10 på the shortlist - nomineret til The International Dublin Literary Award 2017 for The Prophets of Eternal Fjord i #MartinAitken s oversættelse #interlingualzoo #profeterneievighedsfjorden #fantastiskeforsider #dklit #Repost @atlanticbooks with @repostapp ・・・ Exciting news! We are very proud to announce that the gorgeous ‘The Prophets of Eternal Fjord’ has been shortlisted for the International Dublin Literary Award! Written by Kim Leine and translated from the original Danish by Martin Aitken, the novel follows the idealistic, misguided Morten Falck, a newly ordained priest sailing to Greenland in 1787 to convert the Inuit to the Danish church. A rugged outpost battered by harsh winters, Sukkertoppen is overshadowed by the threat of dissent; natives from neighboring villages have united to reject Danish rule and establish their own settlement atop Eternal Fjord. As Falck becomes involved with those in his care-his ambitious catechist, a lonely trader's wife, and a fatalistic widow he comes to love-his faith and reputation are dangerously called into question. #atlanticbooks #novel #dublinliteraryaway #internationaldublinliteraryaward #danish #booksintranslation #novels #literature #igbooks #igreads #books #newbooks #bookclub #reading #booklovers #bibliophile #instabooks #beautifulbooks #writersofig #writingcommunity #bookphotography #bookstagram #tubereads #bookblog #fiction #lit #bookworm
