First published in 1992, Peter H eg's Smilla's Sense of Snow instantly became an international sensation. When caustic Smilla Jaspersen discovers that her neighbor--a neglected six-year-old boy, and possibly her only friend--has died in a tragic accident, a peculiar intuition tells her it was murder. Unpredictable to the last page, Smilla's Sense of Snow is one of the most beautifully written and original crime stories of our time, a new classic.

Author Biography

Peter Høeg, born in 1957 in Denmark, pursued various interests--dancer, actor, sailor, fencer, and mountaineer--before turning seriously to writing. His work has been published in 33 countries. His novels include the bestselling The Quiet Girl and Borderliners, and the award-winning Smilla's Sense of Snow. "Høeg writes prose that is both changeable and as deep-fathomed as poetry...[It] demands to be read aloud and savored."--The New Yorker on Smilla's Sense of Snow.
