Produktbeschreibung
Tyler is in therapy. Katia and Goran are in love. On a summer trip to Zagreb, the couple discover an unusual museum that displays mementos of broken relationships. Inside, Goran stumbles upon an exhibit that seems to be addressed to him, from a girl he met in a Sarajevo refugee camp at age fourteen. What follows is a whirlwind summer of reconnecting with lost pasts: Goran confronts the youth he lost during the Yugoslav Wars, Katia heads to Brazil to find her roots, and Afghanistan veteran Tyler pours out his soul. Set against alternating backdrops of violent circumstances, this novel is a soulful testament to the resilience of the human heart. 'Told with grace and passion, Mary of Kivu is an intriguing story that shows humanity's gift to forgive is greater than its genius to destroy.' SHEREEN EL FEKI, author of Sex and the Citadel (for Mary of Kivu) 'I was incredibly impressed with Mary of Kivu. Hemmingway without the false macho energy.' RICHARD REYES-GAVILAN, Executive Director, Washington DC Public Libraries (for Mary of Kivu)
