Description: This entry contains the first part of the audiobook "Samo domov me pelji" (Just take me home) by author Igor Karlovšek (COBISS ID: 281294595, ISBN: 978-961-291-557-5). A near-fatal car accident intertwines the lives of a mature man and woman. After a passionate affair, their paths separate—but not for long. What follows in their story comes as a surprise to both of them—and to the reader as well. In his new novel, Igor Karlovšek explores something we hardly ever talk about: that passionate love takes many forms and is by no means confined to youth. At the same time, he subtly raises questions that sooner or later confront every one of us: How can we help a loved one who is suffering terribly and dying through their final moments, which are often the hardest and longest of all? How much can we endure and bear, and where is the threshold at which our rationality breaks down and we are driven by impulses and instincts? What might our love for another person lead us to do, and what are we willing to do out of a need to protect them?
