Description
"The hollow fruit" is the first sign of infection in a bee colony. An infested hive, a home where disease and death creep in. The heroine of the eponymous prose by Veronika Šikulová is going through a difficult time: her beloved mother is dying, her husband has turned into a strange outsider, and her teenage son is distancing himself from her. She herself is aging and doesn't know how to move forward. Yet her narration is full of color and rough humor; she reminisces about her childhood and youth, adding stories of characters from her large family and neighbors from her hometown of Modra. Thus, a book emerges that presents all forms of emotion, a pure and deep flow of storytelling that will draw in every reader.
