À propos de cet audio
Brought to you by Penguin.
London, 1990. Zivoin is newly arrived in a strange country. The dependable oldest son, he works all hours of the day and night, sending every penny he can save back to his family. On the news, he watches his homeland, Yugoslavia, slowly fracturing.
Thousands of miles away, in the tropical heat of Uberlândia, Brazil, Alegria prepares to leave behind the country – and the family – she loves dearly. Bright and ambitious, she strives to give her parents the life they deserve, even if it takes her far from them.
A chance meeting throws Alegria and Zivoin together – and for a brief moment, they feel at home. But their journey is just beginning, and what follows will draw them irresistibly across countries and continents, leaving them both forever changed.
The powerful, exhilarating debut novel from an award-winning new voice in fiction, Strangerland is a heartfelt testament to the endurance that has come to define a generation of immigrants. Above all, it is a soaring, emotionally rich story about the power of love to transcend languages, borders and time.

Ce que les critiques en disent
This beautiful, beautiful novel is also a story of strength beyond understanding and resoluteness when hopelessness seems inevitable and is therefore a testament to Monika Radojevic’s ability to make you feel and hold the fear and strength and worry and hope that her characters do on every single page. Strangerland is a wonderful and remarkable novel that I would happily read all over again.
