"Burial Rites" by Hannah Kent is a historical novel set in 19th-century Iceland, based on the true story of Agnes Magnúsdóttir, the last person to be executed in Iceland. Agnes, accused of murdering two men, is sent to live with a farming family while awaiting her execution. As the community grapples with fear and suspicion, Agnes becomes entwined with the family, particularly with the farmer's wife, Toti, and their daughters. The novel unfolds through a series of letters, court documents, and Agnes's perspective, revealing the complexity of her character and the circumstances surrounding the crime. Kent masterfully explores themes of love, betrayal, and the harsh Icelandic landscape. Agnes's looming execution heightens tension, exploring cultural and social dynamics of the time.
