Magdalena the Sinner by Lilian Faschinger
Magdalena Leitner is a woman in need of absolution, yet at heart unrepentent. On White Sunday, she kidnaps a priest at gunpoint, takes him to a remote forest clearing where she ties him to a tree and makes him hear her confession.
Lilian Faschinger was born in Austria in 1950 and holds a PhD in English Literature from the University of Graz where she worked for seventeen years. She has received literary prizes both for her own writing and for her achievements as a translator of such authors as Janet Frame, Gertrude Stein and Paul Bowles. Her debut UK novel, MAGDALENA THE SINNER, achieved widespread critical acclaim, with Shaun Whiteside s translation winning the 1997 Schlegel-Tieck Prize.
