Poetically and with tenderness, Tatjana Gromača speaks of her mother’s break-down during the economic crisis, ferocious nationalism and the war in 90s Croatia. She combines the diagnosis of her mother’s and parents’ condition with harsh and ironically funny descriptions of a “sick” society destroyed by civil war. In Croatia, Gromača was awarded the Vladimir Nazor Prize and the Jutarnji Award for the novel of the year 2013.
