Summary

Jelena Zlatar Gamberožić: Strani gradovi

*The book is underlined in places with a ballpoint pen.

"Jelena Zlatar Gamberožić's book of stories 'Strani gradovi' is about exactly that - about foreignness, about otherness - but far more about the misunderstanding in which her characters, protagonists, those who are affected by events find themselves outside of their control, outside of decision-making... It is about events and destinies, moments that occupy us, come "below the surface" and remain insurmountable obstacles on the way to a better and safer (maybe happier) life. Responsibility and truth are the necessary thematic and structural determinants of what happens in 'Foreign Cities', which determines the nature of the stories and the nature of the final sentence, the point that is revealed as an unexpected, indefinite and uncertain place. The narrator and the reader find themselves on shaky ground, in stories of insecurity, of hospitals, of marriages and relationships that consist of well-established schedules, protocols and expectations. Of course, it is about coming into the world, a world that has yet to be known, a world in which fathers and mothers are on stage, children born, a post-traumatic family environment that can be seen in the rasters of customs, rituals, orders and tests. Often because of this, what should be authentic and intimate, dissolves, disappears and is lost. Pain or absence, searching for one's own role, naming the world and one's own intimacy - these are just some of the points of reference for reading the book of stories 'Strani gradovi', stories of sharp and uncertain, different and incomparable... The opening paragraph of the book "Strani gradovi", taken from T. Bernhard, is serious, cynical and accurate enough for us as readers to look for our own place, our own role - language in the stories of Jelena Zlatar Gamberožić."
