Sandorf Zagreb, 2021.20 cm, 190 str.meki povez, latinicaISBN: 9789533513256Outside of Croatia, Robert Perišić is best known for his novels, but short stories are what first garnere d him recognition, and eventually led him to be considered one of Croatia’s most important contemporary voices. Horror and Huge Expenses is a career-spanning collection of stories that demonstrate why Perišić’s wryly incisive prose, able to hit so many registers, resonates with readers everywhere. From the frontlines of tragic ethnic conflicts to capturing the hilariously absurd realities of globalism, Perišić unapologetically renders failure and loss, so often finding aching beauty in both, by pulling readers into the stray thoughts and moments upon which all of our lives are built, whether we realize it or not.
