'A majestic, breathtaking novel by one of Iceland's greatest writers: 'an extraordinary and original writer' - AS Byatt
The mesmerising new novel by Iceland's internationally renowned writer Sjon - 'the trickster that makes the world, and he is achingly brilliant' Junot Diaz, 'an extraordinary and original writer' A.S. Byatt.
WINNER OF THE SWEDISH ACADEMY'S NORDIC PRIZE 2023A timely and provocative novel about a mysterious Icelandic neo-Nazi and the enduring global allure of fascism.In England in 1962, an Icelandic man is found dead on a train bound for Cheltenham Spa. In his possession, policemen find a map on which a swastika has been drawn with a red pen. Who was he, and where was he going?In a novel that reads as both biography and mystery, the internationally celebrated novelist Sjón tells the story of Gunnar Kampen, the founder of Iceland's antisemitic nationalist party, with ties to a burgeoning network of neo-Nazi groups across the globe. Told in a series of scenes and letters spanning Kampen's lifetime-from his childhood in Reykjavík during the Second World War, in a household strongly opposed to Hitler and his views, through his education, political radicalization, and final clandestine mission to England-Red Milk urges readers to confront the international legacy of twentieth-century fascism and the often unknowable forces that drive some people to extremism.Based on one of the ringleaders of a little-known neo-Nazi group that operated in Reykjavík in the late 1950s and early 1960s, this taut and potent novel explores what shapes a young man and the enduring, disturbing allure of Nazi ideology.
By one of the most admired writers on the international stage, a timely novel about a young Neo-Nazi in post-WWII Iceland and the roots of the far-right global networks of today.
The novel that put Sjon on the international map, now published by Sceptre in a stunning new package.
