Summary
Slobodan Tišma: Astal tiš, riba friš: Genius of the bass guitar: Fatherfucker
Genius of the bass guitar: Fatherfucker is the second part of the prose cycle Astal tiš, riba friš by Slobodan Tišma. In the center of the book is Novi Sad, especially Bulevar Jaša Tomić, which becomes the stage for an unusual walk through memories, encounters, music, thoughts and imagination.
Without a classic plot, Tišma builds a distinctive prose on the border of autofiction, diary entries, essays and internal dialogue. Meetings with musician Svirka Žaračev trigger a series of reflections on art, reality, identity and the very act of writing. The city is not just a space through which the storyteller passes, but a living landscape in which the past, present and imagination constantly intertwine.
Tišma's distinctive style combines philosophical reflection, irony, absurdity and poetic images. Bass Guitar Genius: Fatherfucker is a book for readers who love unconventional prose, autofiction and literature that blurs the lines between life and art.
