Details of the lives of Artur, a retired Yugoslav army captain, and Isabella, a Holocaust survivor, are revealed through police dossiers. As they fight loneliness and aging, they take comfort in small things: for Artur, a collection of 274 hats; for Isabella, a family of garden gnomes who live in her apartment. Later, we meet the ill-fated Pupi, who dreamed of becoming a sculptor but instead became a chemist and then a spy. ...Pupi sets out to correct his family's crimes by returning silverware to its original Jewish owners through the help of an unlikely friend, a pawnbroker."--Amazon.com 546 $a Translated from the Croatian. 651 0 $a Croatia $v Fiction. 650 0 $a DoppelgaÌngers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Doubles in literature. 650 0 $a Old age $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Homeless men $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Curtis, S.
