Anđeo nestajanja

Anđeo nestajanja

Slobodan Šnajder

The Vanishing Angel is a magnificent historical epic and the author's dedication to Zagreb and its silent heroes. The fate of the heroine Anđa Berilo is the fate of a nation and a city, a story about those who believe in ideals even when they are irrevoca

Just before the Second World War, a young, beautiful and bright girl from Žumberka, Anđa Berilo, came to work in a house in Zagreb's Ilica, a two-story house built for rent by a wealthy Jewish wholesaler, as a maid for a gentleman in the city. In difficult war times, she will find out what her neighbors and employers are like - some will end up in a camp, others will join the Ustasha, others will go to a sanatorium for treatment...

Anđa will fall in love with a young communist and embrace the ideals of equality and freedom. Her modest little room will become a haven for an extremely important illegal. However, her lover will be killed in Trg N. after his arrest, and she will have to flee to the partisans. When she returns to liberated Zagreb, she does not want privileges. Fair and incorruptible, she becomes suspicious of her friends who take her to Goli otok. Anđa Berilo will want to correct the injustice, but new times will touch her and the house where she lived.
