By Ivica Prtenja\u010da. Translated from Croatian by David Williams<\/p>\n

ISBN: 978-1-912545-364<\/p>\n

A mother, a father and a son face illness and the new restrictions of a declared pandemic\u00a0in the context of their native Croatia. The dream of returning as a family to\u00a0the sun-soaked terrace of their home in Dalmatia is what inspires them to face – and conquer\u00a0all. Ivica\u00a0Prtenja\u010da\u00a0is\u00a0a quiet novelist at ease in his craft,\u00a0restrained in his narrative voice, while\u00a0confident that his characters and their meandering fates will do their work on the reader.\u00a0Let’s Go Home, Son<\/em>\u00a0has got everything it needs. Family values, loss, guilt, shame, love, disappointment and\u00a0cautious hope.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Let\u2019s Go Home, Son\u00a0is a compelling short novel, a novel of truths already learned but unrealized, and David Williams\u2019s translation of it is a marvel. The characters are sketched rather than painted, and the prose is pithy rather than beautiful, but the overall effect is powerful. In fact, like life itself, the novel doesn\u2019t really end, in any conventional sense.”<\/em><\/p>\n
