Описание книги

Wild Woman is an anti-love story, set against a background of economic hardship. Told through the undiluted language of thought and mania, the twists and turns of internal dialogue are brought alive by a narrator determined to find her true voice. It is a warning against letting life slip through ones fingers and a call for personal liberation and authenticity. Wild Woman is set in 1970s Croatia, interchanging between the capital, Zagreb, and the seaside towns of Rijeka and Pula on the Adriatic coast. This is a story about an everywoman from a poor family, with a retired invalid father and a mother who always protects the interests of men. The story begins with a love affair between two students of literature, who bond through shared experiences and rush into the romantic dream of marriage. However, what at first seems idyllic to a young woman in love soon becomes a nightmare as she finds herself the victim of an unscrupulous, lazy womanizer whom she must support financially and who often disappears without explanation, leaving her alone in unfamiliar surroundings. To free herself from him, she must free herself from the prisons imposed on her by her family, her community and tradition. She must go wild.

Wild Woman

.....

Get off of me, I shout, shaking them off my leg, pushing away the hovering dog; what do you want, you stupid thing, I say, showing her my bite-pocked leg, which these guys go for when they’ve got nothing better around to nibble, and I close off the “prohibited zone”, as I’ve called the rooms ever since they started breeding there and the dog and I escaped to the other side, to the dining room with the small kitchen and little maid’s room, the only refuge we’ve got left. For now.

You and I are going to solve this, I tell my canine adviser curled up on the chair, who, hearing my words, raises her head and pricks up her ears, actually the top part of her ears, the bit next to her head, because she’s a cocker spaniel and her ears hang down to her neck so she can’t really prick them up, only to immediately sink back into her chair. Yes we will, I say, though I don’t know how because to know how you have to know what’s happening to you in the first place. And I don’t, life has caught me off-guard, it’s as if I was possessed by demons the moment he walked out of the flat, slamming the door behind him, when I thought I was so strong, when I did a victory dance around the space still uncontaminated by insects.
