Bábovky
Author: Radka Třeštíková
14,76 €
Bábovky builds a portrait of relationships through twelve women's perspectives. Their interconnected lives reveal how the same bonds look from within different experiences, while the audiobook's multiple narrators preserve the distinction between individual voices.
Bábovky is Radka Třeštíková's novel constructed from twelve interconnected women's stories. Each protagonist offers her own view of relationships, family, infidelity, parenting, growing up, disappointment, and love. What appears clear-cut in one story can look entirely different from another character's perspective. The audiobook emphasizes this through twelve female narrators, including Iva Pazderková, Jana Plodková, Simona Babčáková, Klára Melíšková, and Barbora Poláková. It runs for 17 hours and 38 minutes.

What is Bábovky about?
Bábovky creates a larger picture from twelve women's lives as their paths gradually connect. Its characters include partners, lovers, mothers, daughters, and women exploring their own ideas of love, family, and fulfillment. The author shifts perspectives: a person or event encountered from one angle may reappear in another woman's story with fresh context. The novel explores the distance between how people see themselves and how others see them. Alongside serious themes, irony and humor remain important. The audiobook carries this multi-perspective design into its performance, giving twelve female characters twelve distinct voices.
