Summary

Gabriela Babnik: Intimate

In the novel Intimno we travel between Paris, Ljubljana and New York, following three narrative lines that are at the same time a commentary on institutional racism and any other racism: the love story of Janina and Fadul, a former journalist from Africa who fled to Europe because of his critical texts, the relationship between the young Amina and the older Tibor who are facing the death of their child, their daughter Izabela, and the story of artist Deana, who with her photographs enters the intimacy of those she portrays. Among them is the mysterious man Tay, who reveals the connection between stories about identity and the Other, but also about the possibility and impossibility of choice.

Gabriela Babnik, Slovenian writer, literary and film critic and translator, was born in 1979 in the German city of Göppingen. She completed the study of comparative literature at the Faculty of Philosophy in Ljubljana. After her studies, she traveled around Africa, staying the longest in Burkina Faso. She has a master's degree in the contemporary Nigerian novel and translated the novel "Half of a Yellow Sun" by the Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Her first novel, "Koža iz bombaža" ("Cotton skin") won the prize for the best debut at the Book Fair in Slovenia in 2007, and the novel "Sušna doba" ("Dry Age") won the European Union Literature Prize in 2013. He lives and works in Ljubljana.
