Summary
Dragan Velikić: Address
A new novel by the two-time winner of the Nino Prize.
Belgrade often appeared on the Central European map of Velikić's literary geography, but in the novel Address of the capital of Serbia, he is the main tragic figure of this contemporary story. In the consciousness of the protagonist Vladan Todorović, a documentarian at the Postal Museum, images of a city that has gone through various stages of destruction, from Turkish times to today, appear.
Walking through the streets and parks, he compiles his "diary of suffering", a kind of file of the city and himself in it, trying to recall images of the past and find in them the meaning of today's state of mind and general decay. Openly engaged, through the striking character of Vladan Todorović, disgusted by the fate of the monstrous government and slave mentality, his own country that found itself in the "European garbage dump", Velikić in his new novel, however, does not allow this loud reflection on the fate of the nation to prevail over the recognizable magic of storytelling, but manages to capture the most subtle overwhelming feelings, outline the characters in a few strokes and at the same time provide exceptional pleasure readings.
