Synopsis

A soliloquy of self-examination, upheaval, loss, hope, disillusionment, ambition and failure--Ivana Sajko paints a portrait of an intellectual at a crossroads.

Every Time We Say Goodbye is a novel about departures, about childhood, about the end of love and about the lost idea of ​​escaping to a better place. Each chapter is one long sentence that moves from the past to the present, from the skin of a frightened boy to the suit of an adult man, from one end of Europe to the other, following the fate of a man who travels from a coastal town on the Adriatic to Berlin in order to start again.

The reader joins the narrator on his journey, both on the train and in his mind--from disjointed memories triggered by his departure from home, through attempts to put his relationships and experiences in some kind of order to find meaning in them and perhaps assign blame, to confronting his most painful memories--finally arriving with him at his destination with a sense of clarity and the possibility of a new beginning. Ivana Sajko paints a portrait of an intellectual at a crossroads with stylistic care and precision.
