Ta hude Vanje Hudnik
(The Fierce Vanja Hudnik) Book not yet available in English
Summary:
Funny, witty, and a bit all over the place, fifteen-year-old Vanja suddenly finds herself facing a whole new set of challenges after moving to Ljubljana. Her words trip over each other, her thoughts rattle around, and every now and then something truly cringy slips out. At school, surrounded by new faces and with an enigmatic roommate named Jara, Vanja starts to realise that identity isn’t a choice — it’s something that gradually reveals itself. Friendship isn’t always gentle, love doesn’t come with a manual, and yet all of it is, somehow, wonderful. (source: publisher)

Comment:
This is a coming-of-age story with no shortcuts. A story about what it feels like to be different. To be on your own. And simply — to be. Or, as Vanja would put it: Identity means knowing who you are! (source: publisher)
