Onečejevalec

Unsettling events shake Ljubljana and its surroundings: large puddles of urine appear in public spaces, someone smears monuments with faeces, libraries and shops become targets of crude vandalism, and young women start dying in one of the city's tower blocks. The heroine is a journalist who investigates what lies behind these bizarre happenings and always runs into the same name: Theodor Baumann, whose cold presence, odd way of moving and strangely shaped body frighten everyone who meets him. A mix of philosophical essay and mysterious crime story, the novel is threaded with grotesque scenes, violence and unexplained aggression, and asks about the existence of chaotic, primal evil.
