In this work, the author treats two types of characters in parallel. Some are real, realistic official detectives, and others are detective characters as formed by the creative thought and talent of the writers.
Peić is one of the most excellent literary stylists, that is, a superb master of language whose style is irresistibly suggestive, dense and branched, and yet - concise.
The book follows the life and work of Branko Ćopić, a famous Yugoslav writer, from his birth, schooling in Banja Luka to his arrival in Belgrade, showing his literary growth and maturity.
