A collection of selected afterwords written by the author during her ten-year editorial practice in publishing. The book rounds off this phase of her work, presenting ten essays/afterwords to contemporary Croatian prose works.
Nineteen texts about American writers, written mostly in the 1950s by poet, storyteller, playwright, essayist and translator Antun Šoljan, partly together with Ivan Slamnig.
Šoljan was perhaps the last utopian who believed in literature as a value, as he himself emphasized, and accordingly, he was a truly engaged writer in an artistic and cultural sense, not in a political sense.
The first third of the book provides reviews of Russian literature (Chekhov, Ljeskov, Pushkin...). The second chapter deals with world literature (Balzac, Stendhal, Roland...), and the third chapter contains general articles.
