Monumenta

'This is a party I'm glad I was invited to' EILEEN MYLES

Isn't every family home a monument? The provocative debut novel from the award-winning author.

Olga Pavic's house has been requisitioned. The council will bulldoze it. Her home will become a monument to a massacre. But Olga cannot ascertain which massacre.

Three different architects visit, each with a proposal to construct a different monument, to memorialise a different horror.

Within an atmosphere of razor-sharp political surreality, Lara Haworth spins a tender, magical story of familial love and loss. Via a panoply of perspectives Monumenta compellingly and playfully explores remembrance and how tragedy can be the catalyst for remarkable transformation.
