13,16 €

Scarlett Wilková's historical novel Říkali jí Kri-kri follows a woman and the changing life of her Greek island. World War II interrupts a free-spirited childhood, and Kri-kri becomes the mother of triplets at sixteen. Her personal story continues as postwar tourism brings another transformation to her home.

About the book

Kri-kri grows up in an island world disrupted by war. Her early motherhood breaks with the experience of the women in her family: where they had one daughter each, she gives birth to triplets. Family responsibilities collide with her independent nature and desire for freedom.

The novel connects one family's fate with changes to its home. After the war, growing visitor numbers put further pressure on the familiar island world. The Greek setting is a place of everyday life and disruption, where events outside the heroine's control also shape her future.
