In this novel, Melinda Nadj Abonji interweaves two narrative strands, recounting the history of three generations of the Kocsis family & chronicling their hard-won assimilation. Originally part of Serbia`s Hungarian-speaking minority in the Vojvodina, the Kocsis family immigrates to Switzerland in the early 1970s when their hometown is still part of the Yugoslav republic. Parents Miklos & Rosza land in Switzerland knowing just one word-”work.” & after three years of backbreaking, menial work, both legal & illegal, they are finally able to obtain visas for their two young daughters, Ildiko & Nomi, who safely join them.
