Before the Feast
Tags:
Set in Germany
Male author
Description:
Someone has opened the doors to the Village Archive, but what drives the sleepless out of their houses is not that which was stolen, but that which has escaped. Old stories, myths, and fairy tales are wandering about the streets with the people. They come together in a novel about a long night, a mosaic of village life, in which the long-established and newcomers, the dead and the living, craftsmen, pensioners, and noble robbers in football shirts bump into each other. They all want to bring something to a close, in this night before the feast.

Before the Feast by Sasa Stanisic feels just like a fairy tale and I loved that for it. I don't really have much else to say about this except that the cover of the book really suits the story.
