Trieste / Daša Drndić ; translated from the Croatian by Ellen Elias-Bursać. by Drndić, Daša, author., Elias-Bursać, Ellen, translator. Boston : Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2014. Description:  359 pages ; 24 cm Edition:  First U.S. edition. Summary:  "Haya Tedeschi sits alone in Gorizia, in northeastern Italy, surrounded by a basket of photographs and newspaper clippings. Now an old woman, she waits to be reunited after sixty-two years with her son, fathered by an SS officer and stolen from her by the German authorities as part of Himmler's clandestine Lebensborn project. Haya reflects on her Catholicized Jewish family's experiences, dealing unsparingly with the massacre of Italian Jews in the concentration camps of Trieste. Her obsessive search for her son leads her to photographs, maps, and fragments of verse, to testimonies from the Nuremberg trials and interviews with second-generation Jews, and to eyewitness accounts of atrocities that took place on her doorstep. From this broad collage of material and memory arises the staggering chronicle of Nazi occupation in northern Italy. Written in immensely powerful language and employing a range of astonishing conceptual devices, Trieste is a novel like no other. Daša Drndić has produced a shattering contribution to the literature of twentieth-century history"-- Genre:  Historical fiction Historical fiction   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Peosta Library Circulation Stacks 891.8235 Drn 2014 Checked In Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
