Pavol Rankov. Materi. (Mothers)
"When the Red Army invaded Slovakia, Zuzana was mourning for her loved one, a Russian guerilla soldier Alexei, who died in the hands of the Nazi invaders. Suddenly – an arrest, accusations of treason, and she already finds herself in a crowded train that carries to the logging camps of the Gulag disenfranchised slaves of "the state of victorious socialism" – women suspected of collaboration with the Nazis... And many years later Zuzana will describe what she had to go through there, beyond the good and evil, and her story will help another woman to defend her right to her dignity and motherhood.
This masterful novel about love and forgiveness to the last page keeps the reader in suspense and inspires admiration for the irresistible force that a woman is able to manifest for the sake of her child."
