Summary

Natalija Vorobjova, Luko Paljetak: Four-Handed Sonata

A Rashomon love confession about the love of a Russian actress and a Croatian diplomat

Through nine chapters of the novel, each of which has a female and a male side, Natalija Vorobjova and Luko Paljetak describe the relationship of two people who accidentally enter into a love triangle, using physical love soaked in passion as a language and method communications.

Writing about a woman "who changed countries, professions and husbands", who wrote "seven books, five of which were collections of poetry" before she met Nje, who is a translator, film actress and poet, who passionately loves a "forbidden" man, Vorobjova cut deeply into female nature. In the British language, the novel depicts a woman's view of Him as one who is tormented by contradictions, "a sickly wife, a marriage that lasted indefinitely, a successful, unsullied career and a completely new, previously untested feeling". As they intertwined with their bodies in the "silk of her sheets" in the opening chapters, so during the time of the novel, one man and one woman intertwined with their thoughts. Luko Paljetak, as one who sees from a male perspective, tried much more through the text to connect and find commonality with the One who "emerged from the champagne at the reception at the Russian embassy" where HE, "a successful politician and diplomat", was also invited. Therefore, Paljetak shows the reshaping and transformation of a male character who, due to publicity and fear of his own emotions, leaves a love relationship only to eventually become aware of his fateful connection with the One he left, the One who is no longer there.
