Apocalypso

Apocalypso

Gorčin Stojanović

Apocalypso is a collection of prose texts (short stories, essays, feuilletons, lyrical fragments) by the famous Serbian director, screenwriter and critic Gorčin Stojanović (b. 1966).

The texts were written between 1997 and the spring of 2000; the first was inspired by the second album of the band Haustor, and the last ends with the spirit of depleted Belgrade (a comparison with depleted uranium). The third part of the book has not been published before.

The title combines "apocalypse" and "calypso" - the end of the world with dance, ironic rhythm and nostalgic exile. Stojanović writes about transitional Serbia in the 90s: the shadows of war, cultural poverty, urban decay, media hysteria, artistic impotence and personal fractures. The language is precise, cynical, poetically charged - a mixture of black humor, irony and melancholy.

The collection is an intimate portrait of a generation that lived at the end of a world: Belgrade as a labyrinth of time, where the past and the present collide in chaos. The texts are connected by emotions - from music and film to everyday absurdity - and read like a lyrical diary of an intellectual in the war and the post-war period.

Regarded as one of the most authentic prose pieces about the 90s in Serbia – not pathetic, but lucid and bitter, with a touch of rock'n'roll energy and cinematic rhythm. The book is rare in second-hand stores, but remains an important voice about the "apocalyptic dance" of transition.
