Šarmeri bez pokrića

Pero Zlatar

Charmers Without a Cover is a romanticized chronicle of Yugoslav society from the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s. Through the character of a journalist tasked with following the so-called "jet set", Zlatar depicts the world of tabloids, film, television, spor

The main character, a journalist, describes how he was tasked with following the type of people who, in our times, try to imitate the so-called jet set: the world of the tabloid press (stars and star-makers!), the world of film – especially from the era of film co-productions in our country – and partly people from television, athletes, singers, our export celluloid beauties, Italian hunters and merchants, festival "butterflies", models, photo models...

The book explores how individuals created the illusion of importance, wealth and influence, while behind that facade there were often lies and manipulations. Through the personal experiences of the main character, Zlatar shows how the world of the famous and famous is attractive, but also dangerous, and how many journalists and public figures succumbed to its charms.

Charmers Without a Cover is a work that offers insight into social changes and the emergence of a new elite in the former Yugoslavia, and critically reflects on the superficiality and false glamour of public life.
