It recently appeared in bookstores Anthology contemporary of Novi Sad stories (published by Stylos), edited by Nenad Shaponja
About the "Anthology", its editor says: "Novi Sad, until the eighties of the last century, was the most important cultural center of the Serbian citizenry, and even today, when it largely left its mission of the cultural capital to Belgrade, represents in our literature a toponym of a special type and specific weight, often with a different meaning and radiation... The organizer of this selection tried to observe in the vision of the story what is the contemporary moment of our prose bounded by the margins of this city. This is the framework in which the second half of the 20th century is placed, that is, several generations of storytellers active in Novi Sad during that period.
In prose, this view of the city can be placed between the one sent to him by a temporary resident of Novi Sad, literary critic and memoirist Borislav Mihajlović Mihiz in the 1950s, through the feuilleton records of one of Novi Sad's literary icons, Miroslav Antić, from the 1960s, and up to the intimate perception of the city in which imprisoned his youngest generation of writers, who came of age in the nineties, for this occasion seen from the perspective of the poet and novelist Laslo Blašković. The author of the book remains hopeful that he has convinced the reader not only that Novi Sad deserves an anthology of stories, but also that the picture it creates is more authentic and literary convincing than so many others that are offered to him.
Among the authors of the stories are: Boško Petrović, Danilo Kiš, Judita Šalgo, Vojislav Despotov, Đorđe Pisarev, Milorad Grujić, Sava Damjanov and others.

Aleksandar Vučić now has only the old, proven methods of classic dictatorships left, because these modern methods of insanity and poisoning the public are failing. And that, however, goes against his head
Vučić is not defending the state, but himself from the state. With a drum on his back and a guitar in his hands, this man-orchestra performs two or three of the same songs without hearing, with falsifications and falling out of rhythm. His government and politics are like that. In short - dangerous for the environment
