A House at the Sea
Published by Diogenes as Ein Haus am Meer
Original Title: Cas Pik
An old, seaside villa with a large, white terrace – this is how the translator Marina imagines the property she has inherited in Bulgaria. Of course, her friends – the realistic psychotherapist Xenia and the cheeky tradeswoman Vera – soon have Marina's feet back on the ground. An inheritance in Bulgaria does not necessarily mean sun, sea, the beach and white terraces – more likely a bureaucratic nightmare and endless nerve-racking repairs. But the two women are not completely immune to Marina's daydreams. When Marina decides to drive to Bulgaria with her two children in order to inspect the property, Xenia and Vera suddenly join the bandwagon. At least one might be able to spend a pleasant summer at the seaside… An eventful time is in store for the three women in which not only the Bulgarian bureaucracy, but also a passionate archaeologist and his team, try to make their life difficult.
