Branislav Glumac published a novel without periods or commas in 1974, as the relentless stream of thought of a young rebel. Published in socialist Yugoslavia, the work caused a scandal with its openness and became a classic about generational rebellion.
The work is based on a true event that occurred in Spain in 1933: Aurora Rodriguez killed her daughter Hildegart, a famous fighter for women's emancipation and a cult figure on the political scene of the time.
