博客來A tender, richly textured collection of stories that blend memory and imagination, culture and identity, past and present.
In Whispers, Romana Capek-Habekovic brings to life a series of deeply personal and evocative autofiction stories rooted in her Croatian heritage and immigrant experience in America. With warmth, wit, and an eye for the quietly profound, she reflects on childhood, family traditions, cultural dissonance, and the bittersweet act of remembering.
Spanning decades and continents-from post-war Zagreb to suburban America-this intimate narrative journey explores the flavors, places, and people that shaped her identity. From joyful childhood games and oddball neighbors to complex maternal relationships and immigrant reflections, every chapter is a whisper from the past, echoing in the present.
Perfect for readers who appreciate lyrical storytelling, emotional nuance, and the power of memory, Whispers is a celebration of resilience, belonging, and the enduring legacy of family stories.
