by Dragan Velikic (Author), Christina Pribichevich-Zoric (Translator)

The news of his mother's death finds the writer in Budapest and offers the perfect time to open a black box of family mementos, leading to an unravelling of multi-layered stories and an investigation into the everyday life of a time that no longer exists. The Investigator contains everything that has made the author so successful in his homeland: a perfect sense for detail, linguistic precision, a brilliantly polished style. While the novel starts as the searching for a lost mother, it becomes a story about a country and a people who no longer exist; an elegy for Yugoslavia as well asa family.
