Can a romance novel be written as a crime novel? Like an exciting detection game with that genre "whodunit" question? It certainly can, judging by the tools used by Drago Hedl in the construction of this brilliant novel.
If we speak in film terminology (and the new Hedl's confessional prose is an ideal template for a film or television medium), The Time of Sex in the Age of Innocence is a successful sequel of his first novel Lower Drava Coast. With his superb skill and sparkling creative enthusiasm, Hedl avoided all the pitfalls of notorious sequels, those created by mechanical producer whims, and not out of real authorial need.
Drago Hedl’s *Osijek Picture Book* is a collection of newspaper essays and urban sketches about Osijek, its people, its streets, and everyday life. It is a witty and nostalgic chronicle of the city, its customs, and its changes.
