Reviews
"An accomplished first novel . . . A carefully woven tapestry of people in pain."-George Robinson, The New York Book Review "The harsh reality of the Yugoslav wars is brought home to a Norwegian couple in this searing first novel."-Publishers Weekly "A look into loss and horror, in was and out, that is capable of compelling its reader-and leaving behind a sense of deep pity."-Kirkus Reviews "[Senstad's] sensitive and insightful writing allows us to put a face on the countless newspaper accounts of atrocities that occurred in former Yugoslavia."-The Anniston Star "Susan Schwartz Senstad has given her writing all her talent, mind, and soul-no holds barred. The result is a splendid power, an ability to shine light into the inner worlds of her readers. For which we all thank her."-Sena Jeters Naslund, author of Ahab's Wife "This book is profound in its exploration of moral chaos, and devastating in its emotional precision."-Anne Michaels, author of Fugitive Pieces "Tightly woven . . . unusually perceptive . . . artful and compassionate, taking on difficult subjects without crassness or predictability. Senstad pits two wars and two generations against each other in a way that manages to be understanding and unjudgmental."-Maggie O'Farrell, The Observer (London) "Fine and powerful . . . Electric . . . Summarized, the novel sounds like a thriller. And indeed it is, but of conflicting moral constraints and psychic needs and political pragmatism."-The Guardian (London) "Lyrical . . . Devastating yet unsentimental . . . History is woven into the text with astonishing skill."-Scotland on Sunday, "An accomplished first novel . . .

Synopsis
Seeking asylum from distant conflict in Eastern Europe, Zheljka and Mesud are given refuge in Norway at the home of Hans Olav and Mette. Their arrival has profound consequences. Apparently settled into a childless middle age, Mette revisits her own unresolved family history in her frantic desire to establish a connection with Zheljka. All the while, Mesud and Zheljka try to reinvent their love for each other in the aftermath of a brutal war. Both families struggle to acknowledge the unspoken pain in their lives as Zheljka's child, unwanted but not unloved, becomes the focus of a drama in which each of them will share.
