Copied from goodreads:
In a Balkan country mending from war, Natalia, a young doctor, is compelled to unravel the mysterious circumstances surrounding her beloved grandfather’s recent death. Searching for clues, she turns to his worn copy of The Jungle Book and the stories he told her of his encounters over the years with “the deathless man.” But most extraordinary of all is the story her grandfather never told her — the legend of the tiger’s wife.
Paperback edition from Random House.
I got this book as a Christmas present from my mother's best friend a couple of years ago. I read it and really enjoyed it. A dreamy fairy tale sort of story, with a very interesting setting.
The author is originally Serbian and the story takes place in the Balkans, so I plan to give the book to friends of mine who are a Norwegian/Serbian couple :-) Happy reading!
