Tišina u osinjaku

Luka Ostojić

Just as its title suggests, Luka Ostojić's Silence in the Wasp is a book that leads to dangerous, uncertain places.

Welcome, then, to complicated love relationships, strange marriages and large families - places you know, but which by some miracle you have never seen before. Make yourself as comfortable as possible on the islands of loneliness, where Ostojić's heroes live at a turning point surrounded by swarms of bad (and sometimes happy) news. But be careful: that which breathes inside is hard, the hardest reality, only deftly poised on the egg of madness, which is about to be drunk! The newlyweds will run away to a mystical mountain in the middle of their wedding, the sexualized spirit of Goran Bogdan will move into the girls' apartment, housewives will search for an African prince on the Internet, and high school students will reconstruct the story of the tragically deceased Afghan girl Madina Hussiny, but in each of these great stories you will sooner or later catch up with Ostojić's red-hot buzz, the sting that the world wants to change for the better. Clever, moving, humorous and seductively drinkable, Luka Ostojić's Silence in the Wasp is one of the wittiest domestic books you will read, but the good fun in it will have to be paid for with reflection, and with a bit of chills. By reading and asking: is the wasp really quiet, or do we just need to wait a little longer?
