Soba za djevojčice

Korana Svilar

A Room for Girls is a terrific novel about the manipulations we are ready for in order to reach our goal, about young people growing up in the modern uncertain world and facing the weight of their own decisions, whatever they may be.

The distinguished grammar school teacher of the German language, Nikolina Motika, welcomed her former student, Eva Lanč, to her apartment. The new year will soon be here, and her gift will be a baby. Her life has turned upside down and, instead of studying, she is now here with her classmate, who is the only one who understands her, who protects her. Nikolina is not like mom - everything will be fine with her, everything will be corrected, just like her units from the end of the year. But what does that professor get out of it, why is he helping her, who screwed up everything, who decided to give birth in spite of her mother and the whole world?

A room for girls is a novel about today's girls and women, about a world where everything is known and where no one has empathy. A novel about a brave girl and a teacher who is ready to do anything for her students. Korana Svilar, a high school teacher herself, shows the face and reverse of today's generation of young people, their courage and fears behind smartphones, but also the perseverance of a woman who is not a mother.
