The Walnut Mansion
Jergović Miljenko
An epic novel of twentieth-century Balkan life, from the decline of the Ottoman Empire through the bloodshed of the Bosnian War This grand novel encompasses nearly all of Yugoslavia's tumultuous twentieth century, from the decline of the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman Empires through two world wars, the rise and fall of communism, the breakup of the nation, and the terror of the shelling of Dubrovnik. Tackling universal themes on a human scale, master storyteller Miljenko Jergovic traces one Yugoslavian family's tale as history irresistibly casts the fates of five generations. What is it to live a life whose circumstances are driven by history? Jergovic investigates the experiences of a compelling heroine, Regina Delavale, and her many family members and neighbors. Telling Regina's story in reverse chronology, the author proceeds from her final days in 2002 to her birth in 1905, encountering along the way such traumas as atrocities committed by Nazi Ustashe Croats and the death of Tito. Lyrically written and unhesitatingly told, The Walnut Mansion may be read as an allegory of the tragedy of Yugoslavia's tormented twentieth century.

Miljenko Jergović rođen je 28. maja 1966. u Sarajevu. Iz koševskog ga je porodilišta donijelo u zgradu gospođe Hajm-Peserle, na peti kat, stan Rejc. Tri godine kasnije seli se na Sepetarevac, u kuću Trklji. Posljednjih dvadeset i pet godina, koliko ne živi u rodnom gradu, uložio je u stvaranje fikcionalnog Sarajeva, Mejtaša i Sepetarevca, koji s istoimenim stvarnim toponimima mogu, ali i ne moraju imati veze.
Autor je četrdesetak knjiga pripovijedne proze, romana, eseja i pjesama, te knjiga epistolarne proze (sa Semezdinom Mehmedinovićem, te sa Svetislavom Basarom). Romani i knjige priča prevođeni su mu na dvadesetak jezika i tako objavljeni u više od sto različitih izdanja.
Knjiga “Mama Leone” prvi put je objavljena u Zagrebu 1999, a potom kod istog izdavača tiskana u pet izdanja, te u još jednom, unutar edicije knjiga na kioscima. U Srbiji je objavljena u osam izdanja.
Ovo je prvo Buybookovo, a drugo izdanje “Mame Leone” u Bosni i Hercegovini. “Mama Leone” prevedena je na engleski, talijanski, njemački, španjolski, bugarski, makedonski, slovenski. Na njemačkom jeziku knjiga je objavljena u tri različita izdanja.
Izdanje na talijanskom nagrađeno je s Premio Grinzane Cavour za 2003. godinu.
Američko izdanje ušlo je na BTBA Fiction Longlist 2013.
Rusanka Liapova osvojila je 2014. godišnju nagradu Saveza bugarskih prevoditelja za prijevod “Mame Leone”.
Biografija knjige zanimljivija je od biografije pisca.
