Zaljubljeni

Alfred Hayes

Long declared a small masterpiece, this novel is a human comedy about betrayal, superficial loves and sexual attraction.

One lost afternoon in a New York bar, a middle-aged man tells a story: a story about how he was in a relationship with a lonely young woman, how a rich businessman offered her money to spend the night with him, how love turned into hate... Alfred Hayes is not interested in melodrama, he writes about what one thinks about after love, about self-deception, regret, consequences and masks that we wear in love relationships. 68 years after its release, this undiscovered pearl is being presented to the Croatian readership for the first time in a great translation by Mirna Čubranić!
