Summary
Isak Samokovlija: Nosač Samuel
This is a collection of Samokovlija's best stories, a concise selection from his works that this writer left behind as a bright and lasting trace. The masterly stories of Samokovlija are regularly set thematically in the world of Bosnian Jews, but their artistic value is universal. A doctor by profession, with many years of field practice, Samokovlija knew very well the small world of his time in both Sarajevo and Bosnia. He wrote about these people and their everyday life with deep empathy, but also with a sense for a safe and precise description of characters, environments, ways of life and customs.
