Which writers, works, genres, themes and poetics marked the first two decades of the 21st century? What does the map of domestic contemporary prose look like and what does it say about our literature and its values, and indirectly about our Zeitgeist? This anthology, relevant and comprehensive in its selection, and open and contemporary in its approach, answers these and similar questions. Mapping the local literary terrain, its editor Jagna Pogacnik discarded outdated critical tools, broadened perspectives and introduced new methods in order to more faithfully record the strongest literary voices as signals of a new literary era. Autobiographical fiction, male confessions and female westerns, transnational identities and invented languages. Nomads, witches and deserters. Dalmatian prairies and Hungarian plains, Crna Medimurje Zemla and Lika forests. Growing up and aging, wars of memory, fears and laughter. A lot fits into the covers of this book and it can therefore be read in several ways: as an anthology of the best contemporary prose from 2000 to 2020, as a kind of hypertext about a time, and as testimony to the (geo)poetic breadth of this literature.
