Summary
Vladimir Pištalo: Luke
The "Ljubomir P. Nenadović" award for the best travel book. Travelogue - the keys to opening the "can of the world" In this book, the magic of travel is presented in its essential depth. The author directs his thoughts in all directions, and the heroes of his journeys even get drunk on moonshine. This writer, as a "pilgrim of unreal memories", opposes tourist guides "who tell us what to see, how to understand it and why it is interesting". It takes us to completely different places around the planet: sometimes it's a story from an unknown country (Botswana), and sometimes it's a story with numerous echoes from different literary realities (New York); we travel from Victoria Falls to Mount Etna, from megalopolises to the wastelands of this world, from people to solitude, from Heracles to Van Gogh, all the way to historical pockets that the reader unexpectedly encounters, discovering them through geography and the depth of history. From these travelogues, for example, one can see how the Anglo-Saxon world overcame the Roman world or how the Baroque truly unites frivolity and dignity. These travelogues are stories from a trip around the world - complex in their essence and depth like a kaleidoscope, shaped by a series of associations in front of the reader-witness. The flash of the story turns into real fireworks, and parts of the stories turn into a permanent intoxicating state that becomes part of the reader's experience. These records are at the same time a special, sharp and broad view of our planet. The warmth of real experience, depth of perception and literary memory can be felt in them.
