The novel tells the story of a protagonist who is mostly a man, who is mostly called Bujar, and is mostly from Albania-these are, at least, the identities he begins and ends his journey with. Who are you? What is your name? Where are you from? Why are you here? What is your native language? Are you a man or a woman? Who do you love? Pajtim Statovci’s second novel, Crossing, follows his debut My Cat Yugoslavia (originally published in 2014, translated into English by David Hackston in 2017) in responding to these superficially simple questions with a crisp refusal to provide facile answers.
