Knjiga žalbi

Momo Kapor

The book of complaints was published for the first time back in 1984 and immediately attracted great attention from the literary audience and critics.

"The Šlomović Dossier", which together with "Frka" and "The Free Country" make up this triptych, is an important document about the life of a young collector who died tragically, but at the same time it opens up some of the essential questions concerning life and art.

"For the first time in his life, Šlomović was faced with the devastating truth that beauty, spirit, art are just an illusion, fog and smoke, nothing, and that the world is ruled by blind animal forms of possession, which he so persistently avoided to admit for twenty-six years. "

"This 'mysterious collector of beauty' possessed an unusual gift to recognize the best that was happening in the artistic life of France at that time, as well as an intuition that allowed him to very quickly create an extraordinary collection himself." – From the foreword by Ana Kapor
