Description

The Hired Man

Author-Aminatta Forna



In this moving novel from Forna (The Memory of Love), the scars left by the Croatian War of Independence underlie a deceptively simple account of a Croat developing a relationship with foreigners moving into his village. Exactly what Duro Kolak experienced in the fighting that enveloped Gost, his small town, is only hinted at for much of the book, creating a suspenseful backdrop. As the story opens in 2007, Duro meets Laura, an Englishwoman who has arrived in Gost with her family to start a new life. He offers her his assistance, even as other locals are less than pleased to have the newcomers around. Forna does an exquisite job of contrasting her leads' perspectives on Gost—Laura thinks it's one of the most beautiful places she's ever been, while Duro sees past the tranquil surface to the region's blood-soaked recent past. This is a powerful exploration of the impact that violence has on those who suffer it and those who inflict it.
