About this audiobook
In Marinka, Andrej and Sascha grow up together. They build a house among the sunflowers, share family kitchens and know each other's hiding places.
In 2014, shelling kills Sascha's mother. As families leave and the front line changes the place they know, Sascha stays and finds work among men of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic. Andrej's path leads elsewhere. They try to keep speaking across the distance, but each choice changes what the other can ask of him.
Ten years later, they meet near their ruined hometown in different uniforms. What remains of a childhood friendship when the person across the line is the boy who once knew you best?
Where We Played follows friendship into war, with no easy answers about loyalty, responsibility or the wish to go home.
