Pastoral drama (comedy) in five acts, written in double-rhymed twelve-line stanzas (with eight-line stanzas in the lyrical parts), the oldest preserved play by Držić (premiered in 1548 in Dubrovnik, printed in 1551 in Venice).
Since the play Three Sisters was written in the second half of the 19th century, it rightly carries with it certain motifs and an atmosphere that runs through most literary works of that period.
In the comedy Pokondirena tikva, the main character Fema, an ordinary citizen obsessed with the upper class, comically tries to play the role of a lady. The play mocks snobbery, hypocrisy, and the desire for someone else's appearance and manners.
The book brings together dramatic works in which the author deals with the themes of identity, historical fate of Bosniaks, language, culture and political divisions in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The book contains a selection of Šop's poetry and prose, the play The Eternal Prelude, Šop's letters to Dragutin Tadijanović, and memories of his acquaintance with Francis Jammes. The selection was compiled and the foreword written by Branimir Donat.
