520 |a "Nadia moves between the competing perspectives of two survivors of the 1990s Balkan wars who have escaped to London, only to discover that the war has followed them there. Nadia is a young Bosnian refugee who just wants to forget the past-until Iggy starts temping at her London office. Afraid he may be a sniper from the war she fled, Nadia starts seeing threats everywhere, alongside unsettling visions of her lost girlfriend and secret lover, Sanja. As her volatile connection with Iggy unravels, Nadia is forced to face the shaky ethical choices she herself made to escape the war, her survivor's guilt and (underpinning both) her disavowed queer sexuality. Nadia takes us to the recent past of a war that broke apart a European country and presciently foreshadowed the rise of ethno-nationalism in the West. Tense, suspenseful, and mordantly funny, Nadia tracks the complex ways in which a past marked by political violence can shadow and disrupt the present"--  |c Provided by publisher.
