Description

Árið 1829 bíður kona aftöku sinnar á norðlenskum sveitabæ. Agnes Magnúsdóttir hefur verið dæmd til dauða ásamt tveimur ungmennum fyrir hrottalegt morð á elskhuga sínum og öðrum manni. Henni er komið fyrir hjá hreppstjóranum á meðan beðið er eftir dómi Hæstaréttar í Kaupmannahöfn. Heimilisfólkið óttast hana og forðast; enginn sýnir henni skilning nema ungur aðstoðarprestur sem hefur verið falið að búa hana undir dauðann. Í samtölum þeirra og upprifjunum Agnesar opinberast smátt og smátt harmsaga hennar, ást hennar á Natani Ketilssyni og aðdragandi skelfingarnæturinnar á Illugastöðum. Hannah Kent var 17 ára skiptinemi í Skagafirði þegar hún heyrði söguna um Agnesi Magnúsdóttur. Í Náðarstund dregur hún upp ótrúlega mynd af íslenskum veruleika, harðri lífsbaráttu, heitum tilfinningum og hörmulegum örlögum. Náðarstund er fyrsta skáldsaga Kent og hefur farið sannkallaða sigurför um heiminn og hlotið fjölda verðlauna og viðurkenninga, þar á meðal Áströlsku bókmenntaverðlaunin.
