ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
Burial Rites by Hannah Kent is a historical novel set in 19th-century Iceland, centered around the life of Agnes Magnúsdóttir, a woman sentenced to death for her role in the brutal murders of two men. While awaiting execution, Agnes is sent to live with a family at Kornsá, where she forms a complicated relationship with Tóti, a young reverend assigned to guide her spiritually. The novel explores themes of guilt, redemption, isolation, and the harshness of both the Icelandic landscape and society. Through Agnes’s story, Kent examines the complexities of human nature and the search for forgiveness.
