Summary
When Marina's father summons her back to their Croatian island from New York—and away from her evaporating marriage—to help him save his failing cheese factory, she must face her rocky past and an uncertain future.
A year before Croatia joins the European Union, Marina, a refugee from the war in the former Yugoslavia, is forced to confront her divided Croatian-American identity and reinvent herself. Her affair with her childhood sweetheart, the handsome son of a rival cheesemaker, stokes further unrest on their divided island and Marina's father falls ill.
Marina must find a way to heal her family—and in the process, save herself. Marina's emotional journey, set against the backdrop of the delectable cheese business, shows us that looking back to our roots is sometimes the best way forward. Like Allison Larkin's THE PEOPLE WE KEEP (GALLERY 2021), THE CHEESEMARKER'S DAUGHTER is an emotion-packed and beautifully woven story of resilience, but Vukovic also tells a tale of how we survive inherited and personal traumas intermingled with a vivid journey into the spectacular Croatian countryside.
