Serbia, God Help You The fictitious stranger told (wrote?) us through letters to his people how unusual Serbia is to him. No doubt, we recognized ourselves in most of those letters (“Almost all?” – note from subconscious). Is there anything else to tell about us and our mentality in a humorous way? It turned out…
Zen… one of those concepts we’ve all heard of, some people have an idea of what it might represent, and no one really knows what it actually is. There are numerous definitions and perceptions of what zen is. The idea of zen and Zen Buddhism attracted my attention because of the samurai, who experienced…
“Wow“… that was all I could utter after finishing this short book. “A Whole Life” by Robert Seethaler caught my attention for two somewhat trivial reasons. First, because it received praises from the moment it appeared in our bookstores (though, honestly, I never paid much attention to media reviews/critiques). Second, because the book is…

But I think we became truly aware of them in the last 30 years, with the appearance of mobile phones and social networks (and especially with social…
Junichiro Tanizaki, one of the most renowned Japanese novelists of the 20th century, is celebrated for igniting a wave of literary works in Japan that delve into the country’s past, particularly the era of the samurai. On behalf of all enthusiasts of Japan and the samurai, we owe him our gratitude. Set in the…
Nothing is Funny Nothing is funny… I mean, it is funny, but in that sad, ironic, sarcastic, sour (and bitter), realistic way… That’s what emanates from Bojan Ljubenović’s book “Nothing is Funny.” While we read the stranger’s letters about how he experiences some unusual (but for us ordinary and everyday) situations in Serbia, as well…
