Summary
Milorad Pavić: Khazar dictionary: male copy
Hazar dictionary is the most important Serbian book from the end of the 20th century. Pavić's "novel-lexicon" was recognized as "the first book of the 21st century" first in France, and then translated into almost forty languages.
The Khazarian dictionary is not only a wonderful novel about the disappearance of a people and civilization, about the discussion between the three most important religions that is still relevant today, but a novel about the secrets of life and human feelings, about history and modernity, about time and space, about the creation of people between heaven and earth and the fate of the modern world between the unification of states and disappearance of the people.
Thirty years after its first publication, Pavić's work is more relevant than ever.
