The book "Once Upon a Time in History" is actually the closest to a classic memoir, as it deals with the dramatic 1970s, the period of the Croatian Spring.
The plot follows Šeks through the darkness of prison life – the "darkness of sleep" as a metaphor for hallucinations, isolation, and psychological pressure in which reality mixes with nightmares.
