Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow

Harvill Panther edition of the bestselling novel involving a tenacious Greenlander with more than a passing interest in snow. When a neighbour's son falls to his death, the tragedy is dismissed as accidental. Smilla, however, knows better. Hailed as one of the literary phenomena of the decade, "Miss Smilla" is part murder mystery, part philosophical meditation on, well, "snow". "Smilla Jasperson is a wonderfully unique creation of snow and warmth and irony. She shimmers with intelligence." Martin Cruz Smith.
