Features: The Way to Sarajevo is a historical story written from a modern perspective using postmodern techniques. The novel has two plotlines: one set against the backdrop of the Second World War in the early 20th century, depicting family conflicts within an aristocratic estate; the other follows a Russian youth, Ivan Prigozhin, on his peculiar adventures in Europe. The novel reflects the confusion and unease of people during times of societal transition. The spiritual decadence of the early 20th century carries a distinct late-19th-century sentiment—this is the modern significance of the novel. A tense and twisting story, rich in exotic atmosphere.
