Europa u sepiji

Dubravka Ugresic, a keen observer, travels from the American Midwest to Zuccotti Park, and across Europe, including the Irish Aran Islands and Jerusalem, to explore the listlessness of Central Europe and the ennui of the Low Countries. She examines the aftermath of political failures and the remnants of popular culture, seeking deeper truths. Infused with compassion and a sense of melancholic doubt, this collection centers on the perceived disappearance of a future, the anxiety that new utopian visions have not emerged from the ruins of communism, and a pervasive surrender to nostalgia.
