About The Confluence of Hope by Ljiljana Šarac
Hope is a dedicated mother and sister, a faithful wife and a professionally accomplished woman. But, when she discovers that her “perfect” husband Ben has been unfaithful to her, her world is turned upside down. Her new life circumstances bring her to a re-examination: What is it that she wants from marriage? What can she agree to and is it worth sacrificing the chance of a new love for the sake of the illusion of marital happiness? Searching for answers, the heroine experiences a renaissance and realizes that she has been a slave to numerous prejudices. And the idea of love, as it usually happens, is waiting in the place where she least expects it…
This is not just a story about a family, friendship, adultery, and the crisis of middle age, but also about an unplanned pregnancy and a relationship with a younger man. The heroes of this novel are seemingly ordinary people in whose actions we can all recognize ourselves – in their mistakes, hopes, steps backwards and, even more, forwards, and in their desire to find happiness and love. You will cheer for them as you would cheer for yourself.
