Summary
Momo Kapor: Provincial
Niko N. Herceg, a successful thirty-seven-year-old television reporter, dived on August 7, 1974 near the island of Saplun, looking for a sunken ship about which he was filming a show, and on the same day in 1947 he surfaced in another place, on a seemingly unknown Adriatic beach. In an encounter with himself as a ten-year-old boy, Niko becomes a witness to his childhood, life in Sarajevo, school days in high school, his own first love... As much as Foliranti talks about Kapor's student days in Belgrade in the late fifties, Provincijalac is a book that evokes memories of his childhood in Sarajevo, where the author spent the first years of his life.
Provincijalac is a novel about success and defeat, about evil and goodness, about eternity and death, but also about the passion with which we walk through life.
