The novel Holograms of Fear is an intimate and introspective confession of a woman facing a serious illness – a kidney transplant. Through diary entries, the narrator shares her thoughts on the body, identity and fear of death.

Drakulić skillfully dissects the psychological aspects of illness, exploring the limits of human endurance and adaptation. The novel is not only a personal story, but also a universal meditation on the fragility of human existence.
