Stories of Loneliness

In Stories of Loneliness, Miro Gavran portrays his contemporaries with quiet suggestiveness, capturing people whose lives are shaped by solitude and loneliness, the defining theme of our age. The collection gathers ten unusual stories whose characters will quietly get under your skin before you realise it. In their sorrows, disappointments, joys and longings, you will find, without effort, fragments of your own life. Croatia's most translated writer has created a book for literary connoisseurs that will leave no reader unmoved.
The story "In the River's Embrace" was adapted by director Bobby Grubic, three-time Emmy Award winner, into the acclaimed short film Lonely, which has been screened at more than twenty festivals, from Paris and Rome to Hollywood and Dubai.
