"Every night I dream of this moment: I turn around, and in front of me is a bookcase, next to an antique dressing table with a mirror that seems foggy on the inside. I don't try to say goodbye to home, because I don't understand that I'm leaving forever."
1980s: The hero moves to Yekaterinburg from his family home in a Georgian village and becomes an enterprising adventurer in his new home. Present day: The heroine is forced to leave her home country, where a virus is spreading, disabling the part of the brain responsible for empathy.
E. Jabbarova's new novel is a branching text, where the plot lines initially seem unconnected, but eventually converge. What does it mean to find a home, and what does it mean to lose it? How does family history unfold? What makes people feel close and connected to each other?
Asking these questions, the characters find themselves in a constant state of intense flux—a desperate attempt to escape the forces that seek to rob humanity of its uniqueness. Yegana Jabbarova is a novelist, poet, and essayist, author of "The Hands of the Women in My Family Were Not for Writing," "The Red Alarm Button," "Bosphorus," "Romberg's Pose," and "Dua for the Infidel."
