Žena koja je voljela knjige

Ivanka Avelini-Holjevac

The interestingly written book also reveals great unconditional love, the foundation on which these dreams are lived. Openness, unusual lyrical descriptions and sparkling wit make this book an interesting read.

At the same time, she breaks down some fences, assumptions and stereotypes of society about what a university teacher and scientist should look like...
