Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. mooi verhaal ( ) Het verhaal vangt op een trage manier aan, je denkt een verhaal te lezen over de ellende van het leven in het voormalige Joegoslavië. Maar gaandeweg komen er meer elementen in het verhaal, allemaal op geloofwaardige manier. Maar het eind resultaat is behoorlijk fantastisch. Tussendoor speelt nog het opbreken van Joegoslavië mee en de strijd tussen de nieuwe landen in de Balkan. Daardoor wordt je steeds meer meegesleept en wil je weten hoe het afloopt. De afloop van het verhaal is ook geloofwaardig geschreven, al zitten daar een aantal overdreven stappen in. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

"A fearlessly funny tragedy about an improbable friendship, unstable dreams, missed opportunities, and epic coincidence. In a quiet coastal town in Yugoslavia, two men seeking more than the Communist regime can offer find their lives deceitfully entwined. Andrej is a postman in complete denial of his existence. He yearns for respect and fame but commits petty crimes for reasons he doesn't fully comprehend. Josip is an increasingly irrelevant cable car operator and unfaithfully married. Life was so much simpler when neither one knew the other's secrets. Now that they do-discovered quite by accident-each man has resorted to blackmailing the other. As their anonymous misdeeds escalate, a farce of mutual dependency begins. So does the unlikeliest of friendships when Andrej and Josip finally meet face-to-face. In a tale set against the impending Balkan War, Martin Michael Driessen ingeniously explores the foibles of two painfully ordinary men boldly staking their claims on life."--Publisher.
