НГДЛ

The hero, a pigeon fancier, searches through war and absurdity for his Serbian high-flying pigeon, in a picaresque novel of travel and wandering without a happy ending or a comforting moral. The world of the 1990s appears in a comic, cynical kaleidoscope, and the hero compares himself to Odysseus. A playful treatise on the history of the pigeon, from Babylon to Tesla and from the biblical flood onwards, gives the bird its weight as a symbol.
