Description
"How did the book get born? Not far from my home, at night, a girl was murdered. The police arrived. They established that the murder was committed for sexual reasons. They started questioning all the residents of the village, and they came to me too. The colonel says:
‘The one who steals hens must be searched for in the henhouse. And the one who kills for sexual reasons must be searched for by studying people’s intimate lives. But we can’t do that because people most often lie. Girls, for instance, say that no one has ever been with them, so they have no idea who is what. If only it were possible to peek under people’s roofs and see who how lives…’
The police left, and I understood that, as a writer, I can lift those roofs just a little.’ Z. Nenaцкий.
The writer describes the life of a small Polish village, Skirolavka, where murders of young girls take place. The author depicts the characters and fates of the villagers—their quirks and superstitions. Different people live in Skirolavka, and almost everyone has a skeleton in the closet. Nenaцкий pulls these skeletons out for just one purpose—to understand who he is: a cruel killer without a face and without a name…
