Bintje

De rijzige appartementsblokken van de provinciestad, jaren negentig. Bintje groeit op in een verscheurd gezin. Haar Congolese vader is een fanatiek religieuze man, een aan lagerwal geraakte schrijver die geen werk vindt en overdag aan zijn memoires werkt. Hoe gedesillusioneerder hij raakt, hoe meer hij naar de fles grijpt en hoe agressiever hij thuis wordt. Desondanks adoreert Bintje haar vader en probeert ze hem op het juiste pad te houden. Als het echter duidelijk wordt dat hij niet te redden valt, verbreekt ze alle contact. Dertig jaar later is Bintje in hetzelfde bedje ziek. Gescheiden en vervreemd van haar zoon, woont ze nog altijd in de intussen verloederde blokken en worstelt ze met haar eigen verslavingen. Haar job als leerkracht biedt enige houvast, tot ze ook op school de controle verliest en wordt gedwongen haar jeugdtrauma’s onder ogen te zien.

Zajtrk prvakinj

Zajtrk prvakinj je knjižni prvenec Liu Zakrajšek, v katerem se s protagonistko odpravljamo na tri različna študentska delovna mesta: v kinematograf, kulturni dom in knjigarno. Ko ne obiskuje predavanj ali dela, preživlja čas v majhni in zatohli podstrešni sobici stanovanja, ki si ga deli z impulzivno in kaotično Vesno ter organizirano in resno Pio. Njihova dinamika se skozi poglavja bolj ali manj dramatično gradi in spet ruši, vse to pa se dogaja na ozadju širših bivanjskih kriz, ki jih doživlja mlajša generacija, ki bo šele vstopila na trg dela – od prekarnosti in previsokih cen nepremičnin do vedno hujše razredne segregacije, osamljenosti in slabega mentalnega zdravja. Mlade osebe v romanu, ki naj bi torej razmišljale o svojih sanjah in prihodnosti, se lahko ukvarjajo kvečjemu s tem, kako zaslužiti za naslednjo najemnino. Roman, ki si navdih za naslov izposoja pri Kurtu Vonnegutu, je subtilna satira sodobnega časa, ki jo nujno potrebujemo.
