In The Chaotic Murmur of an Unclear Destiny
$3.99 – $15.99This is a book of deep love, devotion, and respect for the author’s late wife of the author, and it can also be seen as a guide and practice for overcoming difficult situations in life. Exploring his inner self, especially the unconscious part, the author talks about emotional reactions in the modern, alienated world. Improvising his imagination, he talks about a microcosm, which can be anywhere, in which there are long-standing injustices that need to be dealt with. How?
Please read it, and protect yourself with knowledge, it will certainly not lead you astray and accept everything that life puts in front of you, be ready, and understand all sorrows, difficulties, and injustices as a game that you solve, so that you, not others, set limits for yourself. – Marina Denadic
Željko Vujovic seems to be moving in a silent sailing ship not far along the mainland and observes everything on the shore… He looks precisely at the long past time and presents it to the reader as if it happened now. Sometimes that coolheaded composure gives way to a slightly emotional subjective assessment. Then the character of the Anemic Director appeared who was “appointed to that position by the Hepatobiliary Surgeon who applies the knowledge of hepatobiliary surgery in the politics of the Microcosm, and the Hepatobiliary Surgeon was appointed to the position by the Tall Man Who Sees High Above the Microcosm.” That emotional assessment is contained in a mild edge of irony which only reinforces the image of society that we survived a long time ago…
Željko is the treasure of many generations before him… Sometimes he breaks into a biting caricature: The Running Pissing Man, but, that is a testimony of the times we lived in, maybe we forgot and it comes back to us again and again: bad students raise respectable professors. And those respectable “beat the stone” on Naked Island. “Why? For nothing.” Answers a stout old woman, carrying on her mare a full “carload” of grapes and figs, which she picked with her own hands and laboriously and intended for her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren, pointing with her head to the house of Blažo Jovanovic, who, at that time, was cheering and dressing in Montenegro. – Dragan Perišic

To Then and Back Again: A Memoir Part One A Collection of Uh-Oh’s, No No’s and A Few OMG’S
$3.99 – $19.99To Then And Back Again is a memoir written in two parts. It’s a book for those who enjoy the trials and tribulations of real-life people and feel they can or would like to relate to those whom they are reading about. It’s a memoir about only those richest, most interesting details concerning my life…or so I would like to think. It was written to convey those sometimes simple, sometimes complex, but many times emotionally charged experiences I’ve had during my life. Whether these emotions were elicited by the harsh realities of adversity that I, like many, have faced and overcome, or by the personal triumphs achieved through perseverance, and at times, through sheer willpower alone is for the reader to decide. I will, however, try to express them in such a manner as to allow the readers the chance to decide for themselves. We will embark on a journey to then and back again; an odyssey that will encompass a multitude of adventures that are at times disturbing and chaotic, and at other times fascinating and humorous. These adventures will range from overcoming desperation and loneliness as a result of a hidden identity, to the anguish of a best friend and his suicide that served absolutely no purpose nor had any meaning; a suicide that gained nothing for anyone…especially himself. From an insidious monster’s theft of a child’s innocence to things that just happen; catching you unaware, then kicks you right square in your pearly whites. The journey will certainly run the gamut of human experiences and emotions, and I will share my life with the reader if they wish to take the ride. And of which I’m also certain, if I do it suitably, then they will vicariously become the reader’s adventures as well. The first part is about my life from the time I was about eight years old, when our family home was destroyed by fire to when I was just out of high school and first went out to live on my own. The second part will be about my life from when I was about twenty until I was thirty something. It will begin when my dad and I built my first home until I finally moved from my hometown to go off to medical school.

Parchita
$3.99 – $14.99When I was young, my mom and dad did their best to provide for our family. Money was scarce. Neighbors and our church would sometimes give us clothing. I remember finding a pair of pants in one of the boxes which fit me perfectly. However, I grew taller and my pants unfortunately didn’t. My mom would either sew patches to cover up holes from overuse and she would also sew fabric to the bottom of each pant leg to make them longer. The word for patches in Spanish is parches. Parchita is what inspired me to write this book. I truly hope you enjoy my story.
