Sezona berbe
The harvest season will fascinate readers with sensuality and unusual metaphors, as well as the poetic power recognizable by Magdalena Blažević's narrative voice.
After a short love affair with a glassblower, photographer Una, under the pretext of preparing an exhibition, goes to a long-abandoned village, to her parents' house, in order to get away from unbearable everyday life. With the eye of his analog camera, inherited from his mother Ida, he records his inner feelings with external images. She talks to her lover about her return, her unspeakable longing, her wanderings through the village and a nearby town, and by photographing the remnants of bad times she hints at her mother's decades-old love story, who, although married, fell in love with another craftsman, and like Una, she was ready to start today a new life.
Harvest season by Magdalena Blažević is a dreamy novel about timeless love, full of fine eroticism and unrepeatable love scenes behind which lies the story of the decline of cities, the poetics of abandoned spaces and the impossibility of overcoming trauma.
