SYNOPSIS: “Available in English for the first time, Per Faxneld’s The Tree of Sacrifice comprises forty-four Swedish folk-Gothic tales. Each of the forty-four short tales included is beautifully illustrated by artist Mimmi Strinnholm.
The book is translated by the author.
Faxneld takes his inspiration from dark, folkloric narratives which have been told in his family for generations. The Tree of Sacrifice thus conveys the enchanted atmospheres of old Scandinavian folklore. In keeping with the style of traditional oral storytelling, the writing is intentionally simple and sparse, while at the same time inventive, subversive, provocative, and philosophically complex.”
