The year is 1635. Iceland is a world darkened by superstition, poverty, and cruelty. Men of science marvel over a unicorn's horn, poor folk worship the Virgin in secret, and both books and men are burned.Sjón introduces us to Jónas Pálmason, a poet and self-taught healer, banished to a barren island for heretical conduct, as he recalls his gift for curing \"female maladies,\" his exorcism of a walking corpse on the remote Snjáfjll coast, the frenzied massacre of innocent Basque whalers at the hands of local villagers, and the deaths of three of his children. Pálmason's story echoes across centuries and cultures, an epic tale that makes us see the world anew.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51536406053152,"sku":"NEW0374159033","price":12.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91B82rf6vwL.jpg?v=1777413891","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/from-the-mouth-of-the-whale-a-novel-0374159033","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
