Summary
Bojan Krivokapić: Villa Fazanka
After returning from abroad, where she spent almost her entire working life, Ana, the main character of this novel, buys an apartment "with a view of the Danube and the Army House". She tries to settle down, but the birds from the past do not give her peace. One August, he goes to the north of the plain, to Vila Fazanka, to look after his best friend's house and dog. It is the beginning of a series of stories, meetings and relationships of some seemingly ordinary, but also very unusual characters. There is also Granda, a Hungarian weasel, who wags her tail tirelessly. This is a novel about a peaceful plain that swells like a subcutaneous pimple, and from which the voices of the past and former residents of demolished houses do not allow the veil of oblivion to cover them with their polyphony. Villa Fazanka, in which the coastal and plain environments flow into each other, is a novel about possible loves and a world in which losses do not have to drag us to the bottom, but open new insights and lead us to serenity. The novel is a hall of mirrors: one story frames another, another opens a third, a third plunges into the next, a new story could emerge from each, and each part contains a reflection of the whole. In front of the reader, seemingly incompatible spaces permeate, communicate and multiply: wasteland and sea coast, cemeteries and houses, forests and skyscrapers. In each of these spaces, history is awake and alive, sometimes as a document, sometimes as witchcraft. Grounded in a time that trees recognize as standing people, "Fairy Fazanka" preserves the magic of the everyday, not as a storytelling trick, but with a deep understanding of the wholeness that is established by overcoming loss.
