Going back to the end, I don't know how much of Agnes' fate will emerge via publicity blurb and interviews but if you don't know the historic outcome, please don't seek the answer. Although you don't need that level of unknowing to enjoy the book, being ignorant of where it's going adds to the experience. It's only this that prevents me from discussing an ending I'm desperate to talk about and, when you get there, you'll see why. You'll also see why I have a new, burgeoning interest in Icelandic history and whatever Hannah Kent chooses to write about next.
If you want to read more fiction based in Iceland, we also recommend [[Heaven and Hell by Jon Kalman Stefansson]]. For a non-fictional look at burials, have a look at [[Rest in Pieces by Bess Lovejoy]].
