Djevojka, žena, drugo

Bernardine Evaristo

This is a novel about the future, about the past. He is fiction, he is history. This is a novel about who we are today.

From Newcastle to Cornwall, from great-grandparents born in the early twentieth century to teenage girls in the twenty-first, the novel follows its twelve characters on personal journeys through space and time over the past hundred years. Each of them is looking for something - whether it was a shared history, an unexpected future, a place to call home, a sense of belonging, a lover or lover, a lost mother or father, or just a glimmer of hope...

Bernardine Evaristo is the first black woman to win the prestigious Booker Prize, and she shared the prize with Margaret Atwood for the novel "Testimonies", which happened only for the third time in the history of the prize.

A novel full of passion, sharp as a knife blade, bursting with energy and humor... Brilliant. Booker Prize Jury

A strong, brave, sexy novel that bursts open a view into a world we have yet to get to know. Sunday Times

In the hands of Bernardina Evaristo, any story from any time begins to vibrate with tremendous life energy. Ali Smith
