The first Polish collection of essays by one of the greatest Croatian writers, brought together by an acclaimed translator Magdalena Petry\u0144ska specially for the Polish readers. Starting with the particulars \u2013 exhibitions, books, and photographs \u2013 Jergovi\u0107 records his reflections on issues that are of personal interest to him, as well as crucial for the understanding of contemporary world \u2013 identity, his life in two cultures, a sense of belonging, alienation, emigration. His writings are always uncompromisingly honest.
Texts collected in this volume formulate a polyphonic story, both initiate and universal, painful and ruthless, focused on memory, complicated history that intrudes into people\u2019s lives, on literature that is both a burden and a support, finally, on the redeeming power of love in the world \u201cafter the barbarians\u201d. In an unobvious way, Jergovi\u0107 shows that hopeless times can breed hope, while apocalypse can be beautiful.
Extended excerpts address the work of major European artists and writers \u2013 Thomas Bernhard, S\u00e1ndor M\u00e1rai, Ivo Andri\u0107, Danilo Ki\u0161, L\u00e1szlo Krasznahorkai, Miroslav Krle\u017ea, and Marina Abramovi\u0107. Jergovi\u0107 writes about cities as well \u2013 Petrinija, Trieste, Belgrade, Budapest, Zagreb, Krakow, and Lviv. Walking around them, the writer activates the fading memory of recent past and of the complex Central European history.
Some pieces in the volume address Polish culture, which Jergovi\u0107 feels and understands like few others. The collection contains texts on Wr\u00f3blewski, Vincenz, Mi\u0142osz, R\u00f3\u017cewicz, Herling-Grudzi\u0144ski, Zagajewski, Kornhauser, Tokarczuk, Stasiuk and others.
