Set against the stark backdrop of the Icelandic winter, an
elusive, enigmatic fox leads a hunter on a transformative quest. At
the edge of the hunter's territory, a naturalist struggles to build
a life for his charge, a young woman with Down syndrome whom he had
rescued from a shipwreck years before. By the end of Sjon's
slender, spellbinding fable of a novel, none of their lives will be
the same. Winner of the 2005 Nordic Council Literature Prize--the
Nordic world's highest literary honor--"The Blue Fox "is part
mystery, part fairy tale, and the perfect introduction to a
mind-bending, world-class literary talent.
