Krátky popis
The moving yet humorous story of a girl struggling to care for
herself and others in post-communist Slovakia. Emotionally
neglected by her immature, promiscuous mother and made to care for
her cantankerous dying grandmother, twelve-year-old Jarka is left
to fend for herself in the social vacuum of a post-communist
concrete apartment-block jungle in Bratislava, Slovakia. She spends
her days roaming the streets and daydreaming in the only place she
feels safe: a small garden inherited from her grandfather.One day,
on her way to the garden, she stops at a suburban railway station
and impulsively abducts twin babies. Jarka teeters on the edge of
disaster, and while struggling to care for the babies, she
discovers herself. With a vivid and unapologetic eye, Monika
Kompaníková captures the universal quest for genuine human
relationships amid the emptiness and ache of post-communist
Europe.Boat Number Five, which was adapted into an award-winning
Slovak film, is the first of two books that launch Seagull’s
much-anticipated Slovak List.
