Kristian Novak Bücher

    Kristian Novak, ein kroatischer Autor und Universitätsprofessor, taucht mit seiner scharfsinnigen Prosa in tiefgreifende menschliche Erfahrungen ein. Seine Werke, die oft vor dem Hintergrund Nordkroatiens angesiedelt sind, erforschen die Komplexität von Identität und Zugehörigkeit. Novaks Schreiben ist reichhaltig und evokativ und zieht den Leser in Themen hinein, die sowohl intim als auch universell sind. Seine Fähigkeit, die Nuancen des menschlichen Geistes und gesellschaftlicher Schichten einzufangen, hat ihn zu einer der bedeutendsten zeitgenössischen Stimmen Kroatiens gemacht.

      An amnesiac writer's life of lies and false memories reaches a breaking point in this stunning English-language debut from an award-winning Croatian author. As a novelist, Matija makes things up for a living. Not yet thirty, he's written two well-received books. It's his third that is as big a failure as his private life. Unable to confine his fabrications to fiction, he's been abandoned by his girlfriend over his lies. But all Matija has is invention. Especially when it comes to his childhood and the death of his father. Whatever happened to Matija as a young boy, he can't remember. He feels frightened, angry, and responsible... Now, after years of burying and reinventing his past, Matija must confront it. Longing for connection, he might even win back the love of his life. But discovering the profound fears he has suppressed has its risks. Finally seeing the real world he emerged from could upend it all over again.
