Summary
Mladen Kopjar: Petra's PIN
Petra's PIN is a collection of stories and short stories for teenagers, a generation that has grown up with digital technology, and sometimes completely grown into it. In the title story, there is a PIN code that the boy Jan has to figure out in order not to win the heart of his peer Petra, a reserved amateur photographer. And in Kopjar's other stories, thickly interwoven with humor, love often appears as the backbone of the plot. At the same time, the ending does not always have to be happy, but depends on the hormonal tidal currents of the young heroes. Their lives are immersed in social networks and intertwined with communication applications, but their feelings are certainly not virtual at all. And although youthful euphoria and disappointments have been transferred to mobile phone screens, those true tests of maturity can still be passed only by dancing the Viennese waltz to the clatter of steel railway wheels.
