    Résumé:

    Daughter of Here is an experiment in memory, desire, and time. As Dolores sifts through her whirlwind romance with Célestin, her larger-than-life love for her daughter Mo, and her own childhood behind the Iron Curtain, her narrative shifts from Williamsburg, to Tokyo, to Bucharest before and after the fall, and to Cairo at the first spark of the Arab Spring. Filmic and thought-provoking, inspired in part by Chris Marker's 1960 experimental film La jetée, Ioana Georgescu's novel straddles the political and the personal as it straddles cities and countries across the world.
