Nada

Nada

Ante Tomić

Nada is a novel that restores our hope that some unwanted phenomena in society can be turned into humor and that literature can still convince us that everything will be exactly as it should be and as we wished.

In the beginning, there was a shipwreck from which a young man barely survived, stranding himself on the shore of an island town known for its patron Saint Margaret, responsible for the miraculous increase in the birth rate. But other miracles also happened here, which is not the first time in Ante Tomić's novels. Some couples miraculously reconciled, others miraculously separated, others unexpectedly made up, others denied everything we thought about them. But that's not all either. Kebabs went from being inedible to the holy grail of barbecues, prison cells became apartments without stars, donkeys advertised sexual activities, Serbs and Croats shared a bed, Aco Stanković appeared on a fig tree instead of on television, and one murder was canceled after the victim was found even more in love.

Only Ante Tomić can invent such a hilarious world and make us believe in it as if it were copied from reality.

Ništa nas ne smije iznenaditi

Ante Tomić

This witty prose from the JNA, with a series of characters that will make us laugh out loud, plastically outlines the rawness, but also the small pleasures that more capable soldiers could experience in the most boring year of their lives.
