Zagrljaj milijuna / Umarmung von millionen

Zvonko Penović

This book, with its content, goes far beyond its own, local framework, and shows and proves with what sumptuous eros and energy Penović wrote it.

"Embrace of Millions" is a book by Zvonko Penović, which is dedicated to the "guardians of beauty". This essay-lyrical collection of texts consists of two cycles: the first is a kind of dream about the role and power of art as the foundation of civilization and heritage, while the second cycle explores the possibility of creating a better world inspired by Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. Penović is also known for his passion for French chanson and his extensive monograph on Jacques Brel.
