The Quiet Girl by Peter Hoeg HCDJ 1st U.S. Edition/1st Printing Very Good

Description: The Quiet Girl by Peter Hoeg HCDJ 1st U.S. Edition/1st Printing Very Good. Slight soiling of page edges is only flaw. Superb copy! Not my favorite Hoeg novel (that would be Smilla, of course) but a fine one, nonetheless. It's a literary thriller with some magical realism, superb setting/atmosphere and Hoeg's trademark dreamy prose. A very good read! About the book: Kaspar Krone is a world-renowned circus clown, and a man in some deep trouble. Drowning in gambling debt and wanted for tax evasion, Krone is drafted into the service of a mysterious order of nuns who promise him reprieve in return for his help safeguarding a group of children with mystical abilities that Krone also shares. When one of the children goes missing, Krone sets off to find the young girl and bring her back, making a shocking series of discoveries along the way.
