Sunčana Škrinjarić

The novel tells the story of a boy named Viktor who, after moving, finds himself in a strange and mysterious street. The street is filled with old houses and unusual residents, and the most enigmatic is an old woman who reveals to him that the street hide

Through conversations and encounters, Viktor learns about their lives, actions, and decisions that shaped his family and himself. The street thus becomes a symbol of a journey through time and family history.

Through these encounters, Viktor matures, understanding the importance of the past and its influence on the present. The street helps him connect with his own identity and accept responsibility for his own life. The novel is permeated with a fairy-tale, almost fantastic tone, with elements of introspection, symbolism, and spirituality.

Škrinjarić combines the real and the supernatural to convey a message about the importance of roots, identity, and personal growth. The street of ancestors encourages the reader to reflect on their own family history and the heritage we carry.
