Poslije zabave

The book opens with the line: The story I want to tell is about a terrible crime. Told in five parts, it is a novel about a father and a son, the first writer and the one who inherits his gift, his sensitivity, his legacy and his typewriter, along with the command to stand against injustice with an open heart. It is also a novel about friendship, or its impossibility, about growing up and about writing. Running through all of it is a wartime crime in which several dozen Roma children were killed so that their organs could be taken, an episode that seeps into every other strand as the narrator tries to take apart his own memories.
