"I decided to go out that evening anyway. The city was decorated with flags and balloons. Stalls had been set up on the sidewalk. The streets were overflowing with people. I was sure Vlado was somewhere among them. Thousands of people I didn't know were moving towards me in an encounter like those I had been watching on the computer screen that morning in the registry of people who have disappeared. And while someone is desperately looking for them, they're calmly eating cotton candy at the fair. In front of one of the game booths there was a man standing with his back turned shooting an apple with an air rifle. I was standing a few metres away from him. He looked a lot like Vlado. But the way he walked, the clothes he was wearing, didn't look like him at all. He turned into a side street where a small stage had been set up. The man seemed to know I was following him, so he slipped into the crowd of people recording the concert on their phones. And then I lost sight of him."

brilliant
first lgbtq+ book in the balkans
author has a history of writing poetry which is noticeable in his beautiful sentences - he manages to fit a devastating love story onto 90 pages, not leaving out key points and leaving you with a lot of debate topics.

Didn’t really love this one. Not sure if it’s because it has been translated. But it just seemed very disjointed and didn’t flow as it should. At least it was only 80 pages

Melanholično poetično razmišljajoče ampak prekratko za več ⭐️
