Krátky popis
An epic, deeply moving novel about the power of love and loving
with courage - from the Man Booker International Prize-winning
author of A Horse Walks into a Bar On a kibbutz in Israel in 2008,
Gili is celebrating the ninetieth birthday of her grandmother Vera,
the adored matriarch of a sprawling and tight-knit family. But
festivities are interrupted by the arrival of Nina: the iron-willed
daughter who rejected Vera's care, and the absent mother who
abandoned Gili when she was still a baby. Nina's return to the
family after years of silence precipitates an epic journey from
Israel to the desolate island of Goli Otok, formerly part of
Yugoslavia.It was here, five decades earlier, that Vera was held
and tortured as a political prisoner. And it is here that the three
women will finally come to terms with the terrible moral dilemma
that Vera faced, and that permanently altered the course of their
lives. More Than I Love My Life is a sweeping story about the power
of love and loving with courage.A novel driven by faith in humanity
even in our darkest moments, it asks us to confront our deepest
held beliefs about a woman's duty to herself and to her children.
