Um þessa rafbók
National Bestseller
Strange things are happening at Biehl's Academy when this elite school opens its doors to a group of orphans and reform-school rejects, kids at the end of the system's tether. But the school is run by a peculiar set of rules by which every minute is regimented and controlled. The children soon suspect that they are guinea pigs in a bizarre social experiment, and that their only hope of escape is to break through a dangerous threshold of time and space. Peter Høeg's "brilliant" and dystopian Borderliners is a "uniquely philosophical thriller" (Boston Sunday Globe) and a haunting story of childhood travail and hope.

Um höfundinn
Peter Høeg, born in 1957 in Denmark, pursued various interests—dancer, actor, sailor, fencer, and mountaineer—before turning seriously to writing. His work has been published in 33 countries. His novels include the bestselling The Quiet Girl and Borderliners, and the award-winning Smilla’s Sense of Snow. “Høeg writes prose that is both changeable and as deep-fathomed as poetry...[It] demands to be read aloud and savored.”—The New Yorker on Smilla’s Sense of Snow
