Summary
Vuk Drašković: The Russian Consul
The most beautiful and saddest novel about Kosovo.
"With a certain position and relation of the stars, everything must be repeated here on Earth. In July 1879 and May 1970, the distance from Vlašić to Sjevernjača and from Veliki Kola to Mars and Jupiter was the same. That is why in May 1970 Ivan Stepanovič Jastrebov, that is I, appointed as the imperial consul in Prizren, but here in Đakovica, but the distance is small and meaningless... The future is in the past and the past in the future: everything revolves in the circle that the higher forces roll in the heavens. Pushkin, Russia will be Russia and Orthodox again, again... Serbs will liberate Kosovo again!
