The Summer Without You

Winner of a Pen Translates Award

While kissing Agathon, my soul leapt to my lips…

A story of time slipping, desire just out of reach, like memories lost…

At the beginning of the summer, I had to spend two weeks in hospital… If I hadn't fallen from the balcony, what happened later would likely never have happened at all.

So begins a memoir by a man trying to come to terms with the loss of a lover who is now a famous writer. He is given one more chance to forget by Vlado, the charismatic actor, who is not as successful as he believes. They will have a holiday to recover – find the lost love between them and bury their shared memories of Ivan. It will be a summer without you.
