Summary
Dubravka Ugrešić: Štefica Cvek in the jaws of life
What does it look like when a great writer decides to play with the genre popularly called "love"? The result is a work that has been attracting readers for almost 40 years, a short but endlessly entertaining, witty and subversive novel. Taking Ljubić's ideal reader as the protagonist and leading her through a series of situations recognizable as a typical "female experience", Dubravka Ugrešić lucidly shows the extent to which our everyday life is shaped according to stereotypes.
