The Summer My Mother Had Green Eyes by Tatiana Țîbuleac

A young narrator remembers a single, transformative summer spent with his fragile, unpredictable mother, tracing how their close but troubled bond exposes him to adult disappointments, secrets and acts of both tenderness and cruelty; the novel is an intimate, melancholic coming-of-age account of memory, loss and the ways a child learns to make sense of a parent's unraveling while searching for identity amid poverty, longing and small, luminous moments.
