Autobusne bilješke

Selvedin Avdić

This is a book that teaches us how to marvel at the world again, a book that someone, in a bus or a room, will look at and think about, perhaps in some way, to add to it.

Selvedin Avdić's bus notes were created, miraculously, on a bus or at least on scattered and loosely gathered bus themes, including passengers and drivers and platforms, with the exception of the last cycle "Travels in the Room", which was created, as its name suggests, because of the corona. At that moment, the intercity bus routine became an exotic adventurism. This book is primarily about routines, or more precisely, about finding significance and beauty in them, to once again look at the world around us with dewy eyes, curious and sensitive, as Selvedin Avdić manages to do. Bus notes are a contribution to slowing down time and an invitation to move our gaze away from the screen and to observe, listen and reflect on the world around us. An old recipe for a new time, because the author has realized that today's overwhelming consumption does not lead to observation, nor empathy, let alone reflection. The notes restore measure and faith to small and ordinary things in which they reveal dizzying dimensions. The records are, in addition to an exceptional "democratic" sensibility, which indiscriminately and all the more magnificently adheres to everything around us, interwoven with unobtrusive erudition.
