Ivana Simić Bodrožić

The intimate abysses that Ivana Simić Bodrožić opens before us can disturb us, but at the same time they guarantee reading pleasure.

After the great success of the novel Hotel Zagorje (sold in Croatia in 20,000 copies and translated into German, French, Czech and other languages), in which she dealt with the drama of war and its devastating consequences on the lives of a generation that grew up in war, Ivana Simić Bodrožić's new book 100% Cotton brings us 15 excellent stories about the lives of women in the transitional society of Croatia. In each of them, the author deals with intimate family dramas, meticulously and psychologically nuanced, revealing the layers of family relationships that indirectly speak of the unsuccessful transformation of society. Parents and children, neighbors, spouses, lovers... form a microcosm of these stories, told from the perspective of the main characters. The author introduces us to the intimate worlds of the heroines at crucial moments in their lives, and these marginal situations, at first glance everyday, call into question their identity, reshape all previous knowledge, attitudes and themselves, form the backbone of the stories and open up space for quiet rebellions and dangerous changes. The fates of her painfully (mis)fitted heroines show us what we witness every day; no emancipation goes unpunished.
