Summary

Miljenko Jergović: Gloria in excelsis

*The book has a dedication and signature by Miljenko Jergović.

A novel whose action unfolds simultaneously on three levels: one fictional line follows the events related to the plague epidemic and the fire of the monastery of St. Catherine in Kreševo in 1765, while the monk Friar Marijan acts as the narrator. The second narrative line begins in Sarajevo on April 2, 1945, when the RAF as part of the Allied forces bombed Sarajevo, and branches into the story of Šimun Paškvan, a confidant of the Sarajevo basement shelter, who remains in the city and witnesses all the troubles that befell him, and the story of Željko Ćurlin, a resident of Dubrovnik, who as a British military pilot participated in the bombing of Sarajevo. After that event, Ćurlin was transferred to Zagreb, where he observed the city during the Porać period. The central theme is actually the tragic fate of the peoples in the area of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, which follows them through the centuries of history, their fears, sufferings determined by the historical space, and the ultimate questions that man in such circumstances and such a spiritual atmosphere necessarily faces.
