Description
Marta Dzido's short story collection builds on her previous work, Strawberry Season (2021), as well as her acclaimed debut, Pleasure (2018). While the author's focus shifts to the late summer of life, she is not afraid to tackle many social taboos this time either. The heroines of the carefully crafted stories narrate about aging bodies, traumas, and scars that shape who we are in advanced age, about strong friendships, female solidarity, and the liberating return to oneself. What unites all the protagonists is their ability to stand by their convictions and strive for self-determination at various stages of life. Their stories intertwine into a fascinating narrative about female corporeality, memory, emancipation, and freedom.
