Andrej Nikolaidis was born in 1974 in Sarajevo, to a mixed Montenegrin-Greek family. Until the age of six, he lived in the city of Ulcinj, where he returned in 1992 after the war in Bosnia erupted. Since 1994, he has written for regional independent and liberal media, as well as for cultural magazines.

Quotes by Andrej Nikolaidis  (?)

“But that's always a certain way to recognise a facist: when he's more powerful he kills everything that's different from him, he uses only brute force while law breaks like glass under his boots. And then, when he loses and when he's weak, he invokes the law and tolerance of differences. All of a sudden, he knows by heart every single human rights convention he broke so many times before.”
Andrej Nikolaidis

“At that moment I realised all the things I miss, all the fascinating stories I don't get to hear, because I refuse to mix with people on principle.”
Andrej Nikolaidis, The Son

“Epska svijest je kao sifilis - ne možete je se osloboditi. Ona čovjeka čini erektiranim i usmjerava ga ka herojstvu, a herojstvo i jeste - erektiranost prema smrti. Ali ga, kao i u slučaju sifilisa, na koncu upravo ta erektiranost košta života.
...
Erekcija je savršena metafora herojstva - mozak je tada stavljen van funkcije jer sva krv hita drugdje; i kao što se želi prodrijeti u ženu, hita se da se penetrira u smrt. Kasnije sve splasne - u miru utrobe mlohave i vlažne zemlje, tamo gdje smo se probili, kriknuli, prosuli sjeme i krv i napokon pali.”
Andrej Nikolaidis, Mimesis
