Summary

Selvedin Avdić: A drop of joy

Miran returned to the city after the war on the day when, after the earthquake and the great flood, he heard the sound of a dentist's drill. He will try to live peacefully, in a dilapidated building, with vivid neighbors and memories, he will start a love affair with Verena, the ex-wife of the Banana King, who, along with Honda, an angel in a leather jacket, is only part of the powerful and unusual gallery of characters in the novel "A Drop of Joy" by Selvedin Avdić. "cradles of the proletariat", and the story will be told about... it's hard to say what all. But certainly about darkness, about the open door of the underground world that has seeped into people, about evil that grows and comes, about the fall and twilight of civilization, about anxiety and paranoia, about what we are afraid of, like some apocalyptic or dark future in general.

In this book, the ontological and psychological confusion and refined aesthetics of David Lynch meet with personal memory and some nostalgia for the progress and optimism of the socialist period, which is like everything else, it was built on unstable foundations, on the "snake's bed", as the mining engineer says to the Architect in the novel. "Kap veselja" is a ball of meanings and symbols, the highlight of the evening and a song for fajrunt.
Selvedin Avdić has once again written a novel that transcends the horizons of anticipation, the boundaries of genres and, most certainly, will transcend the boundaries of the language in which it was written.
— Kruno Lokotar
