As I was reading The Mark and getting into it more I certainly felt more and more drawn in. I was utterly compelled by the end. It is a view of a not-so-distant dystopian future that has a cast of characters that are cleverly and deftly intertwined.

I would definitely seek out more English translations as they became available by Frída Ísberg, because she really is a talented storyteller.

I borrowed this ebook using Libby directly on my Kobo ereader. Support your local library!
