Milovan Glisic is referred to as the "Serbian Gogol." In his works, terrible folk beliefs and mystical stories are combined with humor and satire. Seventeen years before the release of Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula," Glisic wrote a tale in which...
the legendary vampire Sava Savanovic appears. You will definitely meet him in this book.
Additionally, the pages of the collection await you with weather-controlling spirits, djinns swirling in a dance, ghosts, and devils. Just don't let yourself be deceived; not all that is told is the mischief of evil forces. Sometimes it's simply peasant superstitions or even someone's clever fabrication. In any case, the book is imbued with Serbian folklore, and you are about to embark on an exciting mystical journey.
Over a century later, the vampire Sava Savanovic will appear in Mirjana Novakovic's novel "Fear and His Servant." This time, his grave will be sought by two unreliable narrators - the devil and a beautiful duchess.
The book "Ninety Years Later" by Milovan Glisic stands alongside works such as "Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka," "The Night Before Christmas," and Gogol's "Viy," "Cards. Evil. Madness. Stories by Russian Writers," Bram Stoker's "Dracula," Howard Lovecraft's "The Call of Cthulhu," etc.
The collection of stories is part of the subseries "Mainline. Balkan Collection." Like all books in the collection, it has a sealed edge, and the ornamental elements on the cover refer to traditional patterns used in embroidery and for decorating carpets. Moreover, the artist intertwines symbols and images from the books into the ornament. The flaps can be used as bookmarks, so you'll never lose your place where you left off.
