Prognane elegije : Izabrane pjesme

Poet, essayist and journalist. From his first book of poetry to the present day, with his strong lyrical gift, Stojić fruitfully calls upon and interweaves a multitude of other voices from the best poetic and generally literary and spiritual heritage (Hölderlin, Ujević, Ben, Šimić, Celan, Šop, Milosz, H. Friedrich...) into his distinctly own poetic voice and rhythm. Thus, one of the most individually consistent opuses in contemporary Bosnian and Croatian poetry was created, and is still developing. Permanently loyal to the original melancholy feeling of the world and the minor tonality of the poem, Stojić, on the other hand, in an expressive and formal sense, shows the courage of change that borders on danger. Namely, with the experience of war, as the universal ruin of humanity, he opens the discourse of his poem to raw reality, events, people, their suffering, colloquial language and prose mode, direct communicativeness. However, the risk proves to be poetically extraordinarily fruitful, because openness to the outside does not result in cacophony, but, on the contrary, in newly discovered possibilities of melody and orchestration.
