We are pleased to invite you to the promotion of the poetry collection "Perina" by Goran Sarić, which will take place on Thursday, March 16, starting at 7 p.m. at the Buybook bookstore. Srđan Sekulić will speak with the author
"Everyday life is mostly banal, gray, often difficult and painful. We go through it as if we are closing our eyes, focused on some immediate goal. When such everyday life passes through the poetic lens of Goran Sarić, then we get 'that little bit' of a soul that fills us to the brim and overflows with humanity, understanding and warmth. Poetry thus gives meaning to existence and reveals in us the ability to see the invisible, hear the inaudible and feel the suppressed... to respect ourselves, others and life itself."
Dragan Stojkovic
"The entire poetics of this collection can be explained through the title phrase of the first poem: 'Iron Giggle'. The lyrical subject collects memories by looking at the shelves of books and photographs. The room begins to be filled with sounds, they are that giggle. At the same time, both dear and eerie, because we love memories, but not moving among them. At the same time, 'Iron Giggle' is an allusion to the title phrase of Hamza Hume's novel Grozdana's Giggle. In contrast to that title, which is the giggle of the joy of life, eros, this iron one is the giggle of death, thanatos. And that is the bipolarity through whose antithesis the entire collection is conceived."
