The keep
Nazivaju ih izgubljenom generacijom – one koji se prvi rode u stranoj zemlji, koji odrastaju uz dva jezika u dvema kulturama, oni koji žive negde na sredini između dveju zemalja, a mesto rođenja ih razdvaja od vlastite porodice. Nigde ne pripadaju i neretko moraju da biraju između dva sveta razdvojena teritorijom, imenom, mentalitetom i bićem...
Kroz životne priče tri generacije jedne porodice, u ovoj istinitoj životnoj priči svako od nas može prepoznati i deo svojih životnih ideala i snova, uspona, padova, drama i lomova, koje su nam doneli burni 20-ti vek i ništa manje izazovan ovaj u koji smo tek zakoračili.
Izvlačenje Balkana iz lokalnih tradicionalnih tokova i pokušaj da se umetne u savremenu evropsku i svetsku civilizaciju mnoge generacije platile su previsokom cenom.
Ovaj neobičan roman je dramatičan isto koliko nostalgičan i prisan...
How much do we really know about our family?
For the narrator in The Keep, she must look beyond the faded pictures, old letters and awkward silences to piece together the history of her family reaching back through war, emigration and loss to where it all started.
Spanning three generations, The Keep takes the reader on a journey through modern-day Canada, 1950s Italy, turn-of-the-century Croatia and on to Nazi-occupied Yugoslavia during World War II where her itinerant grandfather Srba must make a life-changing decision that will affect the entire family.
As the narrator begins to unravel the truth about her family, she discovers that their stories, once tied only to the past, will now play an important role in shaping her future.
