Summary

Olja Savičević Ivančević: Summers with Marija

In an unnamed Dalmatian town in an old stone house, a hundred years of memories are conveyed by women who all bear the name Marija or one of the variants of that name - Mare, Marijola, Maša, Mara... In a series of episodes, above all in summer, images of history and changes open before us as if in a kaleidoscope, first periods, war years, falling in love, making friends, family gatherings, joys, tragedies, travels, of misunderstanding... This great women's history of our families shows the strength of women, power and powerlessness in a patriarchal world, growing up and aging, comings and goings, marriages and deceptions, but above all the love that through generations of women branches and grows like an unconquered bougainvillea tree next to a family house in a small Dalmatian town.

All wives, mothers, girlfriends, daughters, grandmothers, granddaughters, all women of ancestors and the present in the powerful novel Summer with Marias become not only the Marys of a specific family, but also families in general. Olja Savičević Ivančević wrote a subtle dedication and a strong cry of women, systematically silenced and neglected, who are a better part of our families and lives. Summers with Mary are an unforgettable read and the genealogical tree of every family in our region, the tree that lives and survives in every weather and storm.
