Emina Kovačević (b. 1995, Jablanica, raised in Mostar) debuted with the collection Poems from a UNICEF Notebook. The title alludes to the blue UNICEF notebook from her childhood – a symbol of humanitarian aid, the post-war period, and her first writing.
"Many years ago I published a number of poems, and forgot about them. I was fifteen years old at the time. Actually, I was thirteen or fourteen when I wrote them, and they were published as "Poems of a Fifteen-Year-Old" in the magazine Forum."
The songs are about growing up, overcoming fears, and building one's own identity. The work emphasizes the importance of support, friendship, and inner strength.
The book contains a selection of Šop's poetry and prose, the play The Eternal Prelude, Šop's letters to Dragutin Tadijanović, and memories of his acquaintance with Francis Jammes. The selection was compiled and the foreword written by Branimir Donat.
The general opinion is that the play represents not only a sound and valid theatrical model but also a brilliant literary work, which belongs to the anthology of Western dramatic poetry.
The birth, childhood, upbringing and warlike exploits of the giant Gargantua: a satire on scholasticism, wars, monasticism and society, with grotesque humour, enormous eating/drinking and utopian ideals.
