The Lake

The Lake is a raw account of life in a devastated land and the harsh,primitive circumstances under which people fight to survive. A dystopian page-turner about the coming of age of a younghero, which won the 2017 EU Prize for Literature.A fishing village at the end of the world. A lake that is dryingup and, ominously, pushing out its banks. The men have vodka,the women troubles, the children eczema to scratch at. Born intothis unforgiving environment, Nami, a young boy, embarks on ajourney with nothing but a bundle of nerves, a coat that was oncehis grandfather's and the vague idea of searching for his mother,who disappeared from his life at a young age. To uncover thegreatest mystery of his life, he must sail across and walk aroundthe lake and finally dive to its bottom.
