I obični ljudi imaju snove

Iva Hlavač

Out of the 28 manuscripts received that met all the propositions of the host of the anonymous competition for prose manuscripts, the commission rated the collection of short stories "And ordinary people have dreams" as the best.

Behind the code was the name of a young law student, Iva Hlavac from Valpov, who has been writing for two years. That's exactly how long it took her to write the 11 stories in the collection, and this is the first major competition she applied for.
