Isn't every family home a monument? The provocative debut novel from the award-winning author.
Olga Pavic's house has been requisitioned.
The council will bulldoze it.
Her home will become a monument to a massacre.
But Olga cannot ascertain which massacre. Three different architects visit, each with a proposal to construct a different monument, to memorialise a different horror.
Within an atmosphere of razor-sharp political surreality, Lara Haworth spins a tender, magical story of familial love and loss. Via a panoply of perspectives Monumenta compellingly and playfully explores remembrance and how tragedy can be the catalyst for remarkable transformation.
