Erased (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781915789600)

She Doesn't Exist. Neither Does Her Baby. Now What?

From Slovenia's Bestselling author Miha Mazzini

'Mazzini has written a funny, frightening picture of a skewed, manipulative state, with delicious descriptions of characters ranging from the naive to the well-intentioned, to the corrupt.' - Morelle Smith, European Literature

When a "software error" erases Zala from the system, she discovers that officially, she and her newborn don't exist.

As Zala fights desperately to prove her existence, and save her child from adoption, she uncovers the Kafkaesque reality of Slovenia's system - one that erased 25,671 citizens on February 26, 1992.

A chilling thriller about bureaucracy as violence, and one mother's battle against the state.

'Poetic, tragic and moving, this is an author that conquered my heart with this hard tale of an unbelievable European piece of history that still affects so many Slovenian citizens.' - @aratecla_the_bookrat
