Derviš i smrt

Meša Selimović

Dervish and Death is a psychological novel by Meša Selimović written in the period from 1962 to 1966 and is considered his most successful work.

I call time as a witness, the beginning and the end of everything - that every man is always at a loss, Selimović begins and ends the novel with verses from the Qur'an, thereby rounding off the whole, the whole duration in time in which man is the one who loses. It cannot change time, stop it or turn it back. The writer places his story in this framework.
