Replika Monologue: In the Palm of God

Replika presents the monologue of a middle rank-positioned woman in a small city who was born during the war, and laid off in the ‘90s, a short time before her retirement was due. The monologue is revealing about how social factors interfere with our lives: in this case, how the dismissal caused grave psychic and somatic symptoms. The story also offers a glimpse of an East-Central European crisis in depth.
