Harvill Panther edition of the bestselling novel involving a tenacious Greenlander with more than a passing interest in snow. When a neighbour's son falls to his death, the tragedy is dismissed as accidental. Smilla, however, knows better. Hailed as one of the literary phenomena of the decade, }Miss Smilla{ is part murder mystery, part philosophical meditation on, well, }snow{. "Smilla Jasperson is a wonderfully unique creation of snow and warmth and irony. She shimmers with intelligence." Martin Cruz Smith.
