Trial of Soren Qvist — (1970)

By Janet Lewis

“Intriguing…Janet Lewis combines scrupulous research and exquisite craftsmanship to create stories of timeless human drama…must rank among the finest historical fiction in English.”

Tim Gioe — WDCB FM Radio, Chicago

“Lewis has retold a true legend of Denmark in unadorned, free, and exciting prose. Here is a gruesomely fascinating story of such circumstantial evidence as to make the reader want to cry out in protest.”

Saturday Review of Literature

“Some of the twentieth century’s most vividly imagined and finely wrought literature.”
