Description

Alena Hiermanovič
Scary and Funny.
A collection of essays
“If you have experienced all the cruelties and horrors of life and managed not to scream, clutching your head, but instead smiled ironically – you are Alena Hiermanovič. She is exactly like that.
Reading the book, it seems that you are wandering along with ordinary people, interesting to no one but the author, along a winding path straight to the horizon, and you are all together – accidental companions of life. Travelers to the valley. But along the way you may tell each other things that are both frightening and funny.
A surprisingly human book, like a tired smile – “everyone in this world always has better things to do than you.”

I read it in one sitting.”
