The book The Strange Adventures of the Apprentice Hlapić is one of the most widely read novels for children by Ivana Brlić Mažuranić. It is a book for all time about the little, wise, brave and good apprentice Hlapić and his seven-day adventures.
The book is not a novel, but a collection that mixes short stories, drama, and essay fragments, with a focus on death, power, and existential dilemmas.
F. Scott Fitzgerald, the messenger of a lost generation, paints a portrait of the era between the two wars in this collection of eleven stories: hedonism that bites, moral decay that intoxicates, and youth that burns like fireworks.
