Description
In a quiet Croatian coastal town, a retired psychologist named Andreas Ban finds himself adrift, his body failing and his past resurfacing. Once a man of science and words, he is now confronted by the ghosts of memory, particularly those from the tumultuous eras of WWII and Yugoslavia's violent dissolution. This novel delves into the profound struggle to confront and articulate buried truths, exploring themes of remembrance, mortality, and the weight of history. Through Ban's introspective journey, the narrative grapples with the ways in which personal and collective pasts are remembered, distorted, and ultimately, must be faced.
