Susan's breath

What all keeps a man alive...

There are three. At first, the children. The world is in balance. Later, everything will change. She loves one of them, they both love her.
Zuzana Liebeskind is the daughter of a sugar farmer. She lacks nothing, walks through life with ease, surrounded by love. Filaments of burnt sugar float through the air. The 1930s in the small town of Holašovice are sweet.
It is only during the German occupation that Zuzana begins to grow up. It grows painfully into history and history inscribes itself into it. Because she is Jewish, her fate is predetermined. Transportation. Concentrator.
Zuzana's friends Hanuš and Jan stay in Holašovice. But their paths diverge. After the end of the war, Zuzana returns from a concentration camp, but the losses are greater than she expected. Can she still love after all she's been through? Does he even have a choice?

The dramatic story does not explore the question of guilt and punishment or the weight of great history. Jakub Katalpa gently and at the same time with surgical certainty looks at what lies beneath the surface; does not judge, but describes, sensitively records what allows a person to move on in each moment.
