Editor's Note:
Na to, aby ste získali moc nad nezávislými ženami, stačí ich obviniť z čarodejníctva. Platilo to na začiatku sedemnásteho storočia. A vlastne to platí aj dnes. Čo sa stane, keď v búrke na mori zahynú všetci muži z mestečka Vardø a ženy sa zrazu musia postarať samy o seba?Zima 1617, ďaleký sever Nórska. Dvadsaťročná Maren stojí na skalnatom pobreží a sleduje, ako na mori vypukne náhla zničujúca búrka, v ktorej zahynie štyridsať rybárov vrátane jej brata a otca. Ak chcú ženy z malého severského mestečka Vardø prežiť, musia sa vzoprieť hlboko zakoreneným pravidlám ostrova. Začnú loviť ryby, porážajú soby, robia veci, ktoré nikdy predtým nerobili.Tri roky po búrke vstupuje do príbehu románu Ženy z Vardø temná postava. Absalom Cornet prichádza zo Škótska, kde sa podieľal na upaľovaní údajných čarodejníc. Privádza so sebou svoju mladú nórsku manželku Ursu, ktorá je opojená manželovou mocou a autoritou a zároveň z nej má obrovský strach. Ursa na ostrove stretne niečo, čo nikdy predtým nevidela – nezávislé ženy. Absalom však vidí len bezbožné miesto zamorené mocným zlom, s ktorým sa chystá zviesť rozhodujúci súboj.Maren a Ursa sa postupne zbližujú a ich vzťah obe ženy prekvapí. Čo s nimi bude, keď Absalom začne ohrozovať nielen životy žien, ale i samotnú existenciu Vardø?Román britskej spisovateľky Kiran Millwood Hargrave Ženy z Vardø je inšpirovaný skutočnými udalosťami zo sedemnásteho storočia. Je to príbeh o silných ženách, o láske, zle a posadnutosti, ktorý sa síce odohráva na okraji civilizácie, ale zasahuje priamo do jej srdca.
