The book Den fortabte sjæl, as reads the title of the Danish translation, has been published by the Batzer & Co publishing house in Roskilde.

The Lost Soul is a story of a man who worked very hard and very fast and had long since left his soul somewhere far behind. He even lived quite well without his soul – sleeping, eating, working, driving, and even playing tennis. Sometimes, though, he felt like it was too flat around him, as if he were moving on a smooth page from a maths notebook, a page that was covered with even grids…”

This is the first book by Olga Tokarczuk that speaks not only in words but also in images. This is a double voice – according to the writer’s words, Joanna Concejo created a parallel story hidden in pictures. A moving story about waiting, patience, and attentiveness.
