“Karila keeps things fanciful and funny even as the story’s folklore elements descend into the dark and disturbing, thanks to his exuberant embrace of the godforsaken landscape and its inhabitants. This twisted love letter to the rural region leaves a lasting impression.” — Publishers Weekly “Karila’s fusion of crime story and folkloric fantasy is well realised, neither too whimsical nor too serious, with a lovely sense of its own absurdity.” —Financial Times
