Krátky popis
The Eusistocratic Republic of Finland has bred a new human
sub-species of receptive, submissive women, called eloi, for sex
and procreation, while intelligent, independent women are relegated
to menial labour and sterilized. Vanna, raised as an eloi but
secretly intelligent, needs money to help her doll-like sister,
Manna. Vanna forms a friendship with a man named Jare, and they
become involved in buying and selling a stimulant known to the
Health Authority to be extremely dangerous: chilli peppers. Then
Manna disappears, and Jare comes across a strange religious cult in
possession of the Core of the Sun, a chilli so hot that it is
rumoured to cause hallucinations. Does this chilli have effects
that justify its prohibition? How did Finland turn into the North
Korea of Europe? And will Vanna succeed in her quest to find her
sister, or will her growing need to satisfy her chilli addiction
destroy her? Johanna Sinisalo's tautly told story of fight and
flight is also a feisty, between-the-lines social polemic - a
witty, inventive, and fiendishly engaging read from the queen of
'Finnish Weird'.
