Dua Lipa‘s January pick for her Service95 book club is ‘Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead‘ by Olga Tokarczuk. This genre-defying, darkly humorous, and deadly serious novel is a crime story that extends beyond a mere whodunnit. When a local hunter on a remote Polish plateau chokes on a deer bone one winter evening, his death is shocking but easily explained. But when other members of the local hunting fraternity start showing up dead, things start to get weird. Dua said she loved the protagonist’s “opinionated and eccentric protagonist whose fixations on the radical 18th century poet William Blake, rights of animals, and the use of astrology to solve crimes takes this book in unexpected directions at every turn.”
