Măi, fetelor (It’s Both Heaven and Hell Here. Moldova: a Century of Lived History)

There are few places across Europe which have had the tumultuous story of Moldova in the 20th and 21st centuries. My greatgrandmother, for instance, spent most of her life in the same village while living in four different countries: she was born in the Russian Empire, went to school in Romania, resisted collectivisation and eventually gave in during the Soviet era, and got retired in the independent Republic of Moldova. I share her story in this book, as well as stories of other people with different backgrounds I interviewed, in an effort to create a polyphonic view of Moldova’s recent history. Chronologically, the book starts with the 1903 infamous Chisinau pogrom and it ends with the 2022 refugee crisis caused by the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Geographically, the stories are rooted in Moldova but they cover the whole world thanks to the processes of migration that characterised all of the communities described in this book — Jewish, Roma, Armenian, Moldovan, Ukrainian, Russian etc. — at different points during history.

Невидими

Невидими е роман за неприемането на различните, в който деца съчиняват родителите си. Млада жена, отраснала в Дом за изоставени деца, се опитва да превъзмогне травмите от детството си. След поредица от раздели среща Дара – изоставено дете, в което разпознава себе си като малка. Привързва се към нея и решава на всяка цена да намери начин да й подари живота, който тя самата никога не е имала. Това е роман за хората в периферията на обществото. Различни сюжетни линии се преплитат, за да разкажат една обща история: на невидимостта.

Grondwerk

Grondwerk [Groundwork] (2025) explores climate change, collective action and attempts to make the world habitable in poetic and sensory language. In the novel, a naked mole-rat is sent on a mission from her colony in the Horn of Africa to a square in Brussels. Waiting for a briefing that fails to arrive, she observes the curious ways of the homo sapiens and starts digging tunnels in Brussels’ underbelly. As sinkholes grow all over the city – fragmenting the infrastructure of the political heart of Europe – a meeting and growing friendship with a climate activist produces an unexpected twist. Grondwerk was shortlisted for the Boekenbon Literatuurprijs and very positively reviewed in the Belgian and Dutch press.

Srpny

Kam až jsme schopni kvůli tomu druhému zajít? Daniela vyrůstá v rodině, kde ji místo lidí objímají úzkosti. Ty přicházejí s podivnou pravidelností — každý srpen. Slunečné dny pro ni nejsou příjemné, nýbrž bolestivé. Když pak na univerzitě potká Štěpána, myslí si, že svým nepříjemným létům konečně unikne. Netuší však, že téhle minulosti se utéct nedá. Jakub Stanjura v románu originálním způsobem otevírá závažné téma gaslightingu — zvláštní formy manipulace, která v oběti vyvolává pochybnosti o vlastní racionalitě, paměti i celkovém vnímání reality.
