Niotkuda s ljubavlju

In 1991 the narrator, known as Džo, leaves his homeland, sensing that things are about to go badly wrong and that his ordinary name will suddenly sound like a call to violence. An exile among thousands with the same fate, neither lost nor found, he wanders from one end of the continent to the other, north and south and north again, finding no comfort even in memory. After a spell in Rome he settles for a while in Amsterdam, in a country where dreams are unwelcome, and goes on dreaming. Since childhood he has felt that he belongs nowhere, and now he longs for and searches for Maša Koen, an alluring, elusive woman; one woman and one book, it seems, are meant to close the circle of his life.
