January 7, 2025
Olga Tokarczuk’s Writing Soundtrack For Drive Your Plow Over The Bones Of The Dead

The genre-defying novel Drive Your Plow Over The Bones Of The Dead – Dua’s Monthly Read for January by Olga Tokarczuk – delves into the dark secrets of a remote Polish village. After a series of mysterious deaths occur in the local hunting community, an eccentric woman takes it upon herself to solve the murders – it’s a compelling blend of dark humour, philosophical musings, and startling political revelations. Here, Tokarczuk reveals the songs that inspired her gripping novel, from The Doors’ Riders On The Storm to the Largo by Lisa Gerrard.

saman – Ólafur Arnalds

Lost Song – Ólafur Arnalds

Riders on the Storm – The Doors
