Protokol jednog rastanka

The writer tells a recognizable fragmentary story about her husband's dementia and impotence, her loneliness and her search for meaning now that he is gone, admitting that she was never a particularly cheerful and cheerful person - eternally worried about subjective demons and objective social injustices - but without the one who understood her best, it is especially difficult. Irena Vrkljan fought against oblivion throughout her entire oeuvre. She weaved Marina Tsvetaeva, Sabine Spilerein, Walter Benjamin, Miljenko Stančić into her texts, reminding us with their sentences and lives of people devoted to their own ideas, outsider destinies that should be remembered, the destinies of those who are - in her words - always "in between", as well as the injustices that have been done to them. As is she, who is between Zagreb and Belin, between poetry and prose, text and life, intimate and social.
