Krátky popis
In the 1990s, Gaia’s family moves from the neglected peripheries of
Rome to an idyllic lakeside town in search of a new life that will
lift them out of poverty. Each of them bears their own scars:
Gaia’s mother is fiercely determined to secure a better future for
her children at any cost, her father, a once proud man, now suffers
in bitter silence after a devastating accident, her anarchist older
brother rebels against the political apathy he sees at home, and
her young twin brothers wordlessly bear witness to a family in
decay. When Gaia meets two local girls, Agata and Carlotta, the
trio builds a fragile friendship.Gaia’s encounters with callous
boys and contemptuous teachers convince her that she might always
be an outsider—excluded from a privileged life and beyond the
possibility of happiness. When tragedy strikes her friend group. As
more friends slip away and her family fractures, Gaia vows to make
the world pay for all the things it has denied her.Winner of the
Campiello Prize, The Bitter Water of the Lake is an unflinching
portrait of a generation, striving to make a place for themselves
in a world&,nbsp,markedly different from the one their parents
promised them.
