Ništa nas ne smije iznenaditi

Ništa nas ne smije iznenaditi

Ante Tomić

This witty prose from the JNA, with a series of characters that will make us laugh out loud, plastically outlines the rawness, but also the small pleasures that more capable soldiers could experience in the most boring year of their lives.

Nothing should surprise us is a novel by Ante Tomić, author of the hit What is a man without a mustache. Ante Tomić this time wrote a man's story from military service. The story from the guardhouse on the Yugoslav-Albanian border from the mid-1980s tells of unfortunates trapped in the inhuman machine of the army of a communist dictatorship, of recruits desperate without love. Reviving the past and tackling taboo topics, Ante Tomić will surprise you in the novel Nothing should surprise you, make you laugh, shake you on every page and remind you of everything you have heard, experienced or suspected about the army.
