Voltaireova smrt

Voltaireova smrt

Ivan Grljušić

The book is not a novel, but a collection that mixes short stories, drama, and essay fragments, with a focus on death, power, and existential dilemmas.

The Death of Voltaire is a meditation on how great ideals and empires crumble to dust, but leave a mark on the collective consciousness. Grljušić calls for confronting the dark side of history through art, warning that without an understanding of death there is no true life. The book is part of his wider oeuvre (including novels such as The Hellish Tourists from 2005), and is ideal for fans of historical fiction and satire.
